Jform is IMO the best form manager for Joomla! It is the easiest, the fastest.
It has been a long time since the last upadate , but I am happy to see that this component is still evolving.
Well thanks a lot...and please keep up the good work :)
But with this release I am facing 2 major issues:
1. Once I hit the submit button, all it does is resets the entries! And there is no real submission on the frontend or backend.
2. the securimage captcha doesn't show any text in the form.
Any comments or fixes to these?
Thank you
Sid
