Hi.
I'm having trouble validating one of the forms on our website. Other forms validate, but this one doesn't want to work. The form is designed to have 3 drop down selectors and a go button. They are meant to display in one row, with about 8 cells (3 drop downs, 1 go button, 3 spacers).
It currently displays correctly, but doesn't validate. The validator complains that:
1. document type does not allow element "FORM" here.
and
2. document type does not allow element "TR" here.
Whenever I try and rearrange the tags, the display gets horribly messed up. It displays correctly now, but doesn't validate.
The code looks like this:
<body>
<table>
<tr><td>bunch of stuff</td></tr>
<form action="search.php" method="get" name="SearchPullDown">
<tr>
<td width="192" height="36" colspan="5"> <img src="images/image1.gif" alt="" ></td>
<td width="158" height="36" colspan="9" class="tableclass1">
<select name="selectname1" class="selectclass" id="id1" style="width:146px; height:20px;">
<option value="Option1" >Option 1</option>
</select></td>
<td width="30" height="36"> <img src="images/abc.gif" alt="" ></td>
<td width="154" height="36" colspan="5" class="tableclass2">
<select name="selectname2" class="selectclass" id="id2" style="width:146px; height:20px;">
<option value="Option2" >Option 2</option>
</select></td>
<td width="23" height="36" colspan="4"> <img src="images/lmn.gif" alt="" ></td>
<td width="157" height="36" colspan="5" class="tableclass3">
<select name="selectname3" class="selectclass" id="id3" style="width:146px; height:20px;">
<option value="Option3">Option3</option>
</select></td>
<td width="61" height="36" colspan="3">
<input type="image" src="images/zyx.gif" alt="Find"></td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>
</body>
Any help much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
