Rendering Forms in a Paragraph

Here’s an example:

<p>If you're looking for other confidential
search parameters, click
<form action="secret_search" method="post">
<input type="hidden" value="my secret search parameters"/>
<input type="submit" value="here"/>
</form>
!</p>

You can’t.

The P element represents a paragraph. It cannot contain block-level elements (including P itself). HTML4.0 Reference

That means you’re stuck with a line-break if you want to have buttons with form data in your paragraphs.
