In D7 I get somewhat different behaviour:
If I do not create an entry in the theme registry, all works as expected, but if I do, things start to behave oddly.
function mymodule_theme() { ....

'variables' => array(
'form' => NULL,
),
),
In D7 the above should actually be:
'mymodule_thingy_form' => array( 'render element' => 'form',
.... } and create a function function theme_mymodule_thingy_form($variables) {
$form = $variables['form']; $output = drupal_render($form); return $output;
}
You should use either render() or drupal_render_children() rather than drupal_render(). So far as I could figure out, drupal_render() should no longer be used inside theme functions. You use render() to render a specific element, and drupal_render_children() to render all the children but NOT the element (which is what you want when attempting to render $form since that is currently being rendered).
OK, thanks, I will try this. -- ----------------- Bob Hutchinson Midwales dot com -----------------
