Required validation fails when using
Hi,
On a client's site in development there are two identical forms that require different IDs. To prevent duplicate code I have split the fields into a separate partial template however the required="true" no longer works when submitting the form allowing me to enter blank inputs.
Am I attempting to push through too much dynamic content through the perch:template tags?

That certainly looks like it should work. If you turn debug on for the page and then submit the form, do you see any errors?
It looks like it cannot find the template if a relative path is used on form submission, though the fields will appear in the admin panel and render correctly on page.
Setting the template to:
does work as expected.
Great.
The path is relative to the perch/templates directory.
