    <p>so i got some enclosing form and two nested forms. the two nested forms are evaluated with ajax on buttonclick and the external form has a submit-button.</p> <p>simplified markup:</p> <pre><code>&lt;form id="form1" action="default.asp"&gt; //some fields inside a list with unnecessary text &lt;input type="text" name="shortdesc"/&gt; &lt;form id="deleteform" action="delete.asp"&gt; //dynamically generated checkboxes &lt;input type="checkbox" name="deleter" value="somedocument.txt"&gt;somedocument.txt&lt;br&gt; &lt;input type="checkbox" name="deleter" value="some_otherdocument.doc"&gt;some_otherdocument.doc&lt;br&gt; &lt;input type="button" onclick="console.log(this.form); ajaxcall('delete.asp', this.form);" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;form id="addfileform" action="upload.asp"&gt; &lt;input type="file" name="file"/&gt; &lt;input type="button" onclick="console.log(this.form); ajaxcall('upload.asp', this.form);" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;input type="button" value="send" onclick="dataValidation(form1),"/&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>When checking a checkbox and "submitting" the form, console logs outer form, but when chosing a file and "sumbitting" that, the correct form gets logged.</p> <p>can someone shed some light on why and /or how to fix this?</p> <hr> <p>for clarification: this is supposed to be some site (<strong>not HTML5</strong>) where you can submit some text-fields to ask the CEO for some changes. i am now supposed to implement a file-append.</p> <p>The form is handled and created with asp classic (<em>oh the agony, but well...</em>) and as i am not really keen to keep the whole form-data throughout <strong>two</strong> redirects(one for the upload and one for the displaying of uploaded files) i had decided to go for AJAX.</p> <p>FYI: console.log(document.getElementById('deleteform')) returns <em>undefined</em></p>

    1. COHaving two forms inside a form seems like a grand idea. That's probably the problem right there, and why would you do such a thing (oh the agony) !

    2. COPer the [html5 spec](http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-html5-20110525/forms.html#the-form-element) you're not allowed to nest forms.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
