I created an HTML form in a new page in C1, unfortunately when I paste the form action I got from the developer to send the form to another system, it complains about the '=' characters that are part of the value. Why is C1 listening to the values I have in a form? It prevents me from Saving the page so I can't move forward. Is there a way to disable this intrusive watching over your shoulder in C1?

Update: Composite C1 site says:

Important Notes

If the template uses an HTML form, consider using Composite C1 addons that provide the same or similar functionality. You might need to use some forms within <asp:form> element.

Replace the encoded characters the literal type (  ©) with their numerical equivalents (  ©) to avoid validation errors in the template.

Does this mean we can't freely add html forms to new pages without having to use FormBuilder? which by the way is not free.

What is your form action? Usually its as simple as correctly encoding & as & – Pauli Østerø Dec 10 '15 at 20:35
//domainname.us8.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=83db3e233c543f13d883b60ba&id=b4a54151c4 I also tried to encode the "=" signs but it doesn't allow me to save the file. there is something about this string that the editor complains about – J Castillo Dec 13 '15 at 19:27
As I said, write & as & and you're good. – Pauli Østerø Dec 14 '15 at 20:09
Pauli the issue is not the ampersand is the equal signs as I stated above. – J Castillo Dec 14 '15 at 21:43
So you did replace the & with &amps; with no effect? – Pauli Østerø Dec 15 '15 at 09:23
If you go to http://codebeautify.org/xmlviewer and paste in `
` and press *Tree View* you'll get a error about EntityRef. If you correctly encode the & as & you can press the *Tree View* and get a nice result without errors. – Pauli Østerø Dec 15 '15 at 09:28
