Building multiple form tags on a single asp page

I am trying to be able to put a form tag within another form tag. Here is what the master page is structured as:

<form name="aspnetForm" method="post" action="test.aspx" onsubmit="javascript:return WebForm_OnSubmit()开发者_开发问答;" id="aspnetForm">

-----------CONTENT PLACE HOLDER--------------

</form>

Inside my content place holder i want to put another form:

<form id="test" action="test.ashx" method="post">
</form>

My jquery is trying to .prop this form's (id: #test) action attribute, but it can never find it because the outside form is not letting it. The outside form has a "runat="server"" but the inside one does not. Any ideas of how I can go about doing this?

I suggest you have a look at these to SO Questions and their answers:

1. Can you nest html forms?
2. How do you overcome the html form nesting limitation?

In a nutshell you shouldn't be nesting forms.

Are both forms in your DOM? The outer form can't "hide" the inner one from jQuery. $('form#test') should still get it. Just make sure you do not reuse the same id in that page.
