Hey gang,

Quick q here. And I think this might be an easy one. But I'm unsure as to why this is happening.
I've created a text area in an HTML form with the intention of getting the user to enter an address.
<tr>
<td>Address</td>
<textarea name="address" form="usrform">Enter text here...</textarea>
</tr>
But when I put that into the form, the resulting web page shows the text area at the TOP above the rest of the elements. This is what it looks like:
You can also view this form here:
Here's the rest of this form:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en-us">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Order Form</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="" method="post" id="usrform">
<table border="0">
<tr bgcolor="#cccccc">
<td width="150">Item</td>
<td width="15">Quantity</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Tires</td>
<td align="center"> <input type="text" name="tireqty" size="3" maxlength="3" /></td>
<tr>
<td>Oil</td>
<td align="center"><input type="text" name="oilqty" size="3" maxlength="3" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Spark Plugs</td>
<td align="center"><input type="text" name="sparkqty" size="3" maxlength="3" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Address</td>
<textarea name="address" form="usrform">Enter text here...</textarea>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center"><input type="submit" value="Submit Order" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>How did you find Bob’s?</td>
<td><select name="find">
<option value="a">I’m a regular customer</option>
<option value="b">TV advertising</option>
<option value="c">Phone directory</option>
<option value="d">Word of mouth</option>
<option selected="selected" value="e">Don't know</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</body>
I realize that this question isn't strictly PHP related. But I also that HTML forms like this are sort of commonplace in working with PHP. I definitely appreciate any help you may be able to provide!
Thanks
Tim
