Like I said, I did some small tests and it looks like you're right. If I
put the text box outside the form or in another form, document.myname
always comes with the myname form.
Didn't test other nested elements. Will have to wait till monday for that
(don't have IE at home).

That would be great. Could you also do something about the default value
of this collection in case there are multible elements? (Harri doesn't
like my idea. Damn, just made a patch for it.)
