In proper HTML, must an <input> be in a <form>?
forms, html, input, specifications, standards
Solution
For additional information, in xhtml strict you have to place in one of these elements: "ins", "del", "h1", "h2", "h3", "h4", "h5", "h6", "p", "div", "address", "fieldset"
Problem
I need a few input elements, but their values won't be submitted anywhere - they're just going to be manipulated by some client-side JavaScript. Do I have to place them in a `<form>` to have legit HTML, or can they just be free-standing?
