Form Tag in HTML editor not displaying in DOM

Post by dmurphy4 » Mon Jun 17, 2013 8:44 am

I entered a form tag in the HTML editor to pass a variable to another page like so:

Code: Select all

<form action="http://dev.aerobed.com/preference-center.aspx" method="get">Email: <input type="text" name="email" /><br /> <input class="button" type="submit" value="Submit" /></form>
But the form tags do not show up in the DOM. I'm just trying to pass a user variable from one page to another. Any suggestions?

Okay - Now I understand that the HTML editor is contained withing a form so nested forms is a no no. I'm googling for workarounds now.
