jforms should have a workaround for a ie6 bug on multiple submit

[laurentj]

With this

<submit ref="valider">
  <label>Veuillez valider</label>
  <item value="new">Sauvegarder et nouvelle saisie</item>
  <item value="list">Sauvegarder et retour à la liste</item>
</submit>

jforms generate two <button type="submit" name="valider">. On the submit, IE6 always send the value of the last submit button.

Fixed in the trunk and 1.0.x branch

I saw your patch for this. It's fine but really it is a pain for css design to get rid of <button> tag.

Another way to workaround, could be to throw a ie6 only script beside the jforms.js to correct ie6 bad behavior. script could be something like that :

What do you think about it ?

The problem of this solution is that it doesn't work when javascript is disactivated. And I would like jForms to work in such case.

For CSS, if I add a class on submit buttons such class="jforms-submit", is this better ?

[bibo]

class="jforms-submit" would be a convenient way to style all of form submit buttons in one rule. But as far as i know and unfortunately, input element would still limit styling possibilities. Specially for using graphics and rollovers on ie6. But hey, there are also scripts for overtaking those limitations i guess.

ok, I'm going to add this class. In 1.1 version, I'will improve jForms so anyone could create his own form builder, inherited from the default html builder or created from scratch. So you could use <button> for submit if you want.
