Custom Form Submission Conflicts...?

[Raxx]

Code Select Expand

<form action="index.php?action=spotlight_mod"><input type="text" name="topic_num"><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></form>
This was imbedded in Display.template.php

Ok, could anyone tell me why no matter form setup I use, when I press the submit button it pops up a dialogue (that I don't want), "Are you sure you want to do this [Ok] [Cancel]", when OK'ed it tosses me to an error page saying "An Error Has Occurred! Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again."

The url that the error message comes up in is http://url.com/index.php?action=quickmod2;topic=10.0, not sure if that'd help you help me out...

Does SMF have conflicts with custom form form data submission? Is it something really, really simple that I'm missing, or something entirely complex?

I'm using 1.1 RC2 btw.

Thanks for helping!

[edit]Oh, whoops, not sure if this is the right forum...kind of jumped here since I'm doing a bit of SMF coding...
