Description

Hi,
you have been able to use ViewHelper form.textbox as standalone to create an input field.
Since some time (cannot say revision) this is not possible anymore. The ViewHelper tries to access something of the parent Object (formName).

If there is no form wrapped a Fatal error will be raised.

First: why would you want to place a fluid textbox outside of a form?

Since for ajax Requests a wrapped form is not needed. XHTML does not ask for it either.
Imagine you have a select box/radiobutton which is used by JS to change some layout on webbpage etc.
In my case I just use it as a search box which triggers extJS AJAX Filter...
For sure i Could hardocde this one... but why should I, if there is a viewhelper which takes care of a correct field just giving the name.

Steffen
