[opencms-dev] Webform error and missing ADE mode

[Chris Kruger]

Just an update on this problem for the mailing list archive; as I managed to solve mu problem.

My web form (version 8.x.x)  was not loading correctly because it seems the new web forms expect to work from within a container page. Since this is not currently how my site works I created a new page jsp for my form (based on the old version 7.x.x way of doing things) and it now works correctly.

It almost works after some updating to a v8 schema but I get an error within an element of the page. I'm not clear which element it is talking about. The error is:

I didn't miss it initially because version 7 never had it (and I'm used to v7). If I had to guess it is because my pages are not setup with the correct container page and tags ? I was hoping somebody might have some insights into what my problem is.
