Issues with "form action" code in articles

Post by amilmac » Mon Feb 20, 2012 11:55 am

Hello,
I´m trying to set a basic form included in Joomla article, like this:

Code: Select all

<form id="domainchecker" action="http://elternalURL.com/file.php" method="post">
But when i copy this code in HTML editor -in html mode, not wysiwyg - (i´ve tried all editors, Joomla default, no editor, JCE, this not appears the problem) always delete the

"action="http://elternalURL.com/file.php"

So i can´t create forms working, allways action value is deleted in articles, so form not working.

Thanks in advance for all help!

This usually happens because the text filtering is enabled.

Go to Content -> Article manager.
Click on Options on the top right
Go to Text Filters tab
On the Filter Groups, (probably supper users) select No Filtering
Save the changes and try again. see if that works

Best,

SH
