I've recently purchased this extension. If it works it will make my life a whole lot easier, but can't seem to get it to work properly. I've noticed the following:
1. The styles menu is installed with a lower case 's' and the links relate to 'Styles'.
2. Everytime I update the server behaviour it removes the form action, ie changes it to this: action="".
3. I want to use tooltips with the hintboxes and display error messages in the 'speech bubble', but the hints are not displaying at all and the errors are displaying in a line below the text field.
4. The styles for correct or invalid entries don't work either.
I'll paste my source code in the next post, and would be realy greatful if you could shed some light on some or preferably all these issues.
Thank you.

Hi Lucy,

Could you please download and install the latest version 1.5.1
from www.dmxzone.com/go?16853

Seems you are using an older version.

Greetings,
George
