Formtool doesnt make some fields

Hi

I have a form I am trying to process with formtool.pl.  It doesnt have problems creating the checkbox_group items, but it will not create all the other::textfield items.  It will do some but not all.  Here is a portion of the file.

<H2>HEENT</H2>
HEENT::checkbox_group::Blurred Vision::Ear Ache::Hearing Loss::Epistaxis::Tinnitus::Bleeding Gums::Icterus::Rhinorrhea::Sore throat::Sinusitis::None
HEENT other::textfield

<H2>Cardiovascular</H2>
Cardiovascular::checkbox_group::Chest Pain::Palpitations::Intermittent Claudication::Ankle Swelling::PND::DOE::Murmurs::None
Cardiovascular other::textfield

Thanks
Alfonso

Well, as it turns out don’t use Windows Notepad to create forms.  So I will use Notepad++ from now on for everything and format for unix.
Thanks

Alfonso,

You solved the problem?  I have been meaning to look into it since you first posted.

Let me know how everything else is.  I updated some things recently, but I don’t get much chance to use it myself.

Ok
  So far so good,  I’m now looking for a way to pretty up my forms (I’ m very very HTML/PHP challenged).  FYI:  Too many items in the checkbox_group formats real ugly.

I have plenty of forms to put together and will look into everthing else as I go along and post.
