On this page describing Forms -- http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#submit-format
-- the first simple example contains an error which caused me much grief. The two "INPUT" elements include "id" attributes. This is a mistake; "id" is not a normal attribute for INPUT elements; instead they should be "name". Here is the exact text (with my comments on the offending lines): <FORM action="http://somesite.com/prog/adduser"; method="post"> <P> <LABEL for="firstname">First name: </LABEL> <INPUT type="text" id="firstname"><BR> // should be: name="firstname" <LABEL for="lastname">Last name: </LABEL> <INPUT type="text" id="lastname"><BR> // should be: name="lastname" <LABEL for="email">email: </LABEL> <INPUT type="text" id="email"><BR> <INPUT type="radio" name="sex" value="Male"> Male<BR> <INPUT type="radio" name="sex" value="Female"> Female<BR> <INPUT type="submit" value="Send"> <INPUT type="reset"> </P> </FORM> The example under section 17.4.2 correctly uses NAME attributes.
