validating a page with a form on it today, i was reminded that the NAME
attribute is no longer valid in xhtml strict...
<form name="theform" ...
and that i should be using the ID attribute instead
<form id="theform" ...
okay, but when i did that, all my javascript stopped working
for example, i have this radio button, and i can no longer set it using
javascript
document.theform.thebutton[0].checked=true
presumably because it can no longer find "theform"
is there different syntax for using the ID?
right now i've just left the NAME in there...
