Just a few forms questions.

1. It looks like my forms migrated to V7 from V4 - but the form tags were removed...all other structure remained the same? Is this correct?

2. I tried the I-frame workaround for pulling in forms from html pages - the form did not render? Does this still work or was something changed?

3. On my V4 site, my newsletter signup box (in left column and on a custom page) adds any new signups directly to my Icontact account list - will this still work? If not, does anyone have a workaround?

Thanks

Right. ASP.NET surrounds the entire page with a <form>, and per the rules of HTML <form> can't be nested, so they have to be removed.

Nothing changed, it should still work. Perhaps check the length, or set frameborder="1" on the iFrame to debug why it isn't displaying, because it could just be a width/height issue.

I have no idea on this one. If you provide a link to the current functionality I'll take a look.

Thanks Andy. I'll continue to play with it. Hoping to be ready to launch a week before my deadline.
