Hi tclwebtesters,

I'm not sure if this list is still active, but I'll give it a shot. In
XHTML, using a 'name' attribute in 'form' elements has been deprecated.

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#h-4.10

So, I've been switching my forms to use the 'id' attribute. But now
"tclwebtest::form find ~n" doesn't find things in the id attribute. Makes
sense, of course, but I'm wondering if we could somehow add the ability to
search the id attribute. Either with a new flag (~i?) or by having ~n searc=
h
both for name and id.

Does this sound reasonable? Could someone point me to where I should start
looking to make this change?

Thanks in advance,

Vinod
