name attribute (a anchor tag) is obsolete in html5

    W3C validator doesn't like this html:

    <a id='gf_$form_id' name='gf_$form_id' class='gform_anchor' ></a>

    It is displayed when form is ajax or has_pages.

    W3C says: "The name attribute is obsolete. Consider putting an id attribute on the nearest container instead."

    The html could simply be replaced by:

    <a id='gf_$form_id' class='gform_anchor' ></a>

    Unfortunately, there is no filter to just strip this attribute. I could remove the anchor wih the "gform_confirmation_anchor" filter but it would cause problems to ajax forms.

    I hope you can can fix that in the next updates.
    Kind regards
