[sven]

This is not an issue in GXT. it is a global browser issue. You cant have a formtag inside another formtag. This makes also no sense to do.

What are you trying to archieve?

[TheBuzzer]

well ie and firefox both worked in a form within a form.

the inside form is made for fileuploads and the outside form was submitting fields but for gxt the fields will be submitted though a rpc. but the fileupload still in posts to submit.

[sven]

You dont need two formpanels for that. For doing rpc submits you dont even have to use a formpanel

[TheBuzzer]

ya, but the layout I want to use a formpanel layout. or the field labels and stuff all looks wacked

[TheBuzzer]

Ah, so I could just set a contentpanel to a formlayout.

Have a formpanel inside that.

[sven]

Yes. That is what i would suggest, if you want the fieldupload in an own formpanel.

[TheBuzzer]

Now the formpanel inside is not aligned :/

trying to hide

myuploadform.setHeaderVisible(false);
myuploadform.setBorders(false);
myuploadform.setLayout(FormHorizontalPanel.newFormLayout());
myuploadform.setBodyBorder(false);
myuploadform.setFrame(false);
myuploadform.add(companylogofile);


still not aligned.
What other stuff does a extra form make that got to be hidden to make the stuff align with the other fields
