form element name with spaces 1

[Slippenos]

Can I have a form element name with spaces?

For example-

<input type = "radio" name = "User Type" value = "End User"> ?

ID and NAME values are CDATA (leading and trailing spaces are ignored). But:

6.2 ID and NAME tokens must begin with a letter ([A-Za-z]) and may be followed by any number of letters, digits ([0-9]), hyphens ("-"), underscores ("_"). colons (":"), and periods (".").

So be careful and don't use spaces in this context (using underscores instead of spaces in names is a common approach in this area)...

Good advice. Thank you.
