   Hi!

   I'm developing some kind of a photo gallery and need to display a comment form that will write comments to the DB. But I wanna decide things like the comment_post_ID by form fields. so i copied the redered html of the normal coment form and tried some stuff but it doesn't work...

   this is my code:
   

   <form method="post" action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/wp-comments-post.php">
         <input type="hidden" name="SOME-VALUE" value="<?php echo $MY-COMMENT-POST-ID; ?>" />
         <input type="text" name="author" id="author" value="User-1" />
         <input type="text" id="comment" name="comment" />
         <input type="submit"/>
         </form>

   btw. i'm not using the loop...

   i appreciate any help!

   Do you wanna only one comment form for the gallery? (not a form for each photo?) If so you may considere create a page for the gallery and install the comment form (comments.php) on the page template (page-idpage.php)

   I don't know if I understand your question =/

   thanks, i already fixed it by myself:
   what i wanted to do is a comment form per photo.
   i set an hidden input of name="comment_post_id" to the attachment-id.
   what i missed was an id="commentform" in the <form> WP needs for validation...
