Strange error

[wabugi]

I customized some layout stuff on my 68 classifieds. In regular distance I use validator.w3.org to see if I made any mistakes. I was able to eliminate every error exept this one:

Line 88, Column 128: document type does not allow element "input" here; missing one of "p", "h1", "h2", "h3", "h4", "h5", "h6", "div", "pre", "address", "fieldset", "ins", "del" start-tag
�"bd3e2fd36a3c40d548f2100d07ba474d" />
The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you've placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you've forgotten to close a previous element.
One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "<p>" or "<table>") inside an inline element (such as "<a>", "<span>", or "<font>").

First I thought it was a part of my selfmade code in the quicksearch-form. But after many hours of search I am now 99% sure that my form code is ok. There are no errors when I put the code in a extra file for checking.

I never used a code like " "bd3e2fd36a3c40d548f2100d07ba474d" /> ". And that's the reason why I dont write this thread in the html/css forum. Is there any chance that one of the php- or tpl-files generates a code or input box with wrong tags? I really don't know where to look for it. Any idea?

Update:

I found out that the error only occures when a quick search is integrated in the layout. It doesen't matter if I use my own layout or one of the default layouts.

And the code, for example "bd3e2fd36a3c40d548f2100d07ba474d" changes on every reload of the website. So it must be something generated. Is there a way to fix the problem?

Can you post the form code you are using?

[wabugi]

Sure. Here is the form code:

<div class="qsdiv">
 <form method="get" action="searchresults.php">
  <fieldset class="qsfield">
    <label class="qslabel" for="qsearch">Quick search:</label>
    <input type="text" id="qsearch" name="searchtext" class="qsinput" value="{$smarty.get.searchtext|escape}"></input>
    <button class="qsbutton" type="submit" value="{$smarty.const.LANG_SEARCH}"><span class="qsspan">Submit</span></button>
  </fieldset> 
 </form>
</div>

The classes are simple css. But I still think that it's not my fault. Every template causes this error.

There is a similar error displayed for 68 Classifieds

So it doesen't seem to concern only my install of 68Classifieds
