Hi

I'm having trouble with a form in a site I'm developing. The site has a number of forms all using

<input type='image' src='url' alt='alt text'>

rather than

<input type='submit'>

buttons.

I'm just developing at the mo and have been testing in Firefox. Came to try one form in IE today and the submit button doesn't work. It displays and the mouse pointer turns to the pointy finger when you hover but clicking it does nada. tried replacing the button with a normal form submit button - still doesn't work (though this still works in FF).

Tested in Mozilla and Opera and the button doesn't work there either.

As I said, I used this type of button in other forms on the site (1 on the same page!) and they work in all browsers tested and it all works in FF

Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

Thanks

Sincere apologies - worked out the problem and it was my HTML code that was at fault (php had output an extra <form> tag - not php's fault - completely mine).

Sorry! :)
