Alexey,

Thank you and understood.

With that said, wouldn't it be prudent for the constructor to throw an
exception when an invalid argument is passed to it (such as the illegal
space)?

Spaces are not allowed in elements' id attributes. You can complain to
authors of HTML specification if you don't like this fact.

Description:
------------
From the QuickForm2 Tutorial, changed the $id of the form form
'tutorial' to 'test form'.  The constructor did not recognize that the
form was submitted.  Removed the space and the form works as expected.

Test script:
---------------
$form = new HTML_QuickForm2('test form');

$form->addDataSource(new HTML_QuickForm2_DataSource_Array(array(
	'name' => 'Joe User'
)));

$fieldset = $form->addElement('fieldset')->setLabel('QuickForm2 tutorial
example');
$name = $fieldset->addElement('text', 'name', array('size' => 50,
'maxlength' => 255))
	->setLabel('Enter your name:');
$submit = $fieldset->addElement('submit', null, array('value' =>
'Send!'));

if ($form->validate()) {
	echo '<h1>Hello, ' . htmlspecialchars($name->getValue()) . '!</h1>';
	exit;
}

echo $form;


Expected result:
----------------
After changing the name to 'World', I expect to see, "Hello, World!".

Actual result:
--------------
The form is displayed as if it was loaded for the first time, even with
all the defaults from the code.
