From Troubleshooting forum: My comment form doesn't work...
The code I put into the comment form is this, but I don’t know what is wrong here:
<code>
<fieldset>
<p>* Required fields. Your e-mail address will not be published on this site</p>
<p><label>Name*</label><txp:comment_name_input />
<input type=“text” name=“name” value=”“ size=“25” class=“comment_name_input” tabindex=“2” /></p>
<p><label>Mail*</label><txp:comment_email_input />
<input type=“text” name=“email” value=”“ size=“25” class=“comment_email_input” tabindex=“3” /></p>
<p><label>Website</label><txp:comment_web_input />
<input type=“text” name=“web” value=”“ size=“25” class=“comment_web_input” tabindex=“4” /></p>
<p><label>Comments</label><txp:comment_message_input />
<textarea class=“txpCommentInputMessage” name=“message” cols=“25” rows=“5” tabindex=“1”></textarea></p>
<p><input type=“submit” name=“preview” value=“preview” class=“button” /><txp:comment_preview /><txp:comment_submit /></p>
</fieldset>

You can’t modify the form that way. Change to...
(Edit: fixed the code a wee bit in case anyone else sees this thread later.)

Hi Mary,
thanks for your reply, but the link doesn’t seem to work…
Could you post your answer differently?
Thank you, I really appreciate it!

Doesn’t work? You don’t get a link to a page where you can copy and paste the code? I tried to post the code here, but Textile (the thing that formats the forum text) doesn’t seem to like code again…

Hi Mary,
I don’t know what the deal is. I pasted your code but it still doesn’t work. Could there maybe be some other problem?
Looking forward to your reply.

I pasted your code but it still doesn’t work.
Please be more specific than “doesn’t work”. More in the FAQ.

Re: From Troubleshooting forum: My comment form doesn't work...
Hi Alex,
what I mean with it still “doesn’t work” is that I cannot submit a comment, once I entered it into the comment form. Also there is only one button which is labeled “preview”. When I click on that nothing happens.
No preview shows and also I can’t submit the comment. It’s probably something easy that I am missing here…
I am looking forward to your reply!

What code is in the form named comment_form after following Mary’s advice?

There’s a stray </textarea> tag, perhaps that’s part of the problem.
