Hey!
Thanks Andrew, will look into those points that you sent me.
First thing to change will be the DOCTYPE I think, as i didht type
that but must have copied code into a pre-made page...
Cheers!

Ryan,
Four observations:
1. Don't try to solve your problem by changing the DOCTYPE. Bad HTML is
bad HTML. Changing the DOCTYPE may reduce the severity of the problem,
but it won't solve it.
2. You have interpreted the fact that IE gave you what you expected while
FF did not as a problem with FF, but the opposite is true. A problem
with IE allowed it to accept HTML that it should not have accepted. FF
treated it properly.
3. Firebug is a free download from Mozilla. I have it and it has solved
more problems for me than I can remember. (Or, maybe I just don't have
a very good memory.) Get it. You will see your <form...> tags inside
the <table> </table> tags, but not inside any <td>...</td> tags.
4. Learn to use the W3C Markup Validation service -
http://validator.w3.org/. It will point out many problems that you can
solve quickly.
