Multiple Forms in one page

[mohadi]

Is there any way to have multiple forms in one page without having the forced
space between the submit buttons that each form has?

In other words, I want my submit buttonsto be right under each other without
the gap between them which is automatically generated between each form.

Is the second form going to have any input fields? Where are they going to go if the 2nd submit button is right under the first submit button?

None of the forms have any input fields. They all have hidden fields that the users don't need to see which is passed to the action page.

Then how much white space are we talking about anyway? I have a few apps with
something similar, and I am able to fit both buttons into a td tag. Of course
mine are side by each.

Create your 3 forms (with names in the tag) and place the 3 button outside of
any form. into the button field, place some javascript to submit the form.

<form name="form1" action="action1.cfm">
...
</form>
<form name="form2" action="action2.cfm">
...
</form>
<form name="form3" action="action3.cfm">
...
</form>
<input type="button" onclick"javascript: document.form1.submit();">
<input type="button" onclick"javascript: document.form2.submit();">
<input type="button" onclick"javascript: document.form3.submit();">

Thanks. This is the solution I was looking for.:)

Instead of tricks, you can just do the stuff with simple css. It's not the 90's
anymore, you know? :)

Warp your forms inside divs, specifying the size.

<style type="text/css">
.formdiv, .submitbutton {height:24px}
</style>
<cfoutput>
<cfloop from="1" to="3" index="i">
<div class="formdiv">
<form name="form#i#" id="form#i#" method="post" action="">
<input type="submit" class="submitbutton">
</form>
</div>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
