**Dormilich** · Jul 29 '10, 06:02 AM

then there might be a problem with your HTML. did you validate the HTML?

**madhuriks** · Jul 29 '10, 06:04 AM

yes..i validated each and every field....

**Dormilich** · Jul 29 '10, 06:05 AM

I’m not talking of input validation. I’m talking of standards compliance.

omg … from what I see it looks like it should work, but the HTML is hopelessly outdated (the use of <font> is deprecated for decades). check http://validator.w3.org/ for HTML compliance.

**madhuriks** · Jul 29 '10, 06:16 AM

it is showing unable to validate my page..

**Dormilich** · Jul 29 '10, 10:29 AM

did you put in the JSP source code?

**madhuriks** · Jul 29 '10, 10:38 AM

yes i kept like that..

**Dormilich** · Jul 29 '10, 10:43 AM

I was expecting that.

well, the HTML validator expects HTML code (not JSP code, it’s not a JSP validator), thus you have to transform your JSP page in HTML (request the page from your server, save the source code and validate that)

**madhuriks** · Jul 29 '10, 10:47 AM

i had a doubt can u tell me...if the form takes default values...is it possible to clear the form information..

**Dormilich** · Jul 29 '10, 10:48 AM

you will always reset to the default values.
