Form inside a form, is that alright?

Whether we can have a form inside another form?. Is there any problem with that.

Nested forms are not supported and are not part of the w3c standard ( as many of you have stated ).

However HTML5 adds support for inputs that don't have to be descendants of any form, but can be submitted in several forms - by using the "form" attribute. This doesn't exactly allow nested forms, but by using this method, you can simulate nested forms.

The value of the "form" attribute must be id of the form, or in case of multiple forms, separate form id's with space.
