Problem with a FORM

[truelight]

Hi everyone - I have been challenged with a problem, and DAAM it's annyoing. Take a look at this page:

The problem is that the form tag for soem reason makes the upper row of every entry thicker! Why - and more importantly: How do I prevent it?

It is a pet peeve of mine to visit a site for the purpose of helping and to get hit with pop-ups...grrrr.

Anyway, the only form I saw was the search at the bottom. Am I missing something?

Well, actually it's a pop-under, but that does not matter much for a pop-up hater like me and yourself. The window makes good money though, and pops up only once per unique user, so I have decided that it was a decent tradeoff. Anyway, I mistyped the url, I realize that now - it should be http://www.smartsmartsmart.com/downloads20.php3?Category=1

There! I would be glad if you could help!

Grrrrr, I had the same problem with my site. I don't know the HTML solution to the problem, but I created a "go" button in Photoshop that had some transparent space above it to push it down to the right place. I could also color it, which is pretty cool. To see, go to http://www.yeahbuddy.f2s.com/home.html and scroll down to my newsletter signup. Hope that helps.

I'll have a look on your page as soon as I've finished downloading on my nice 33.6 modem.. http://geekvillage.com/ubb/smile.gif Argh - cannot wait until we get broadband coverage.

Anyway - the most annoying part is that I actually managed to fix it by mistake when I was debugging the PHP code, but it didn't seem too important to me at the time, so I ignored it.

Anyway - it's the submit button that is the problem, no? Maybe one should just remove it and replace it with an autosubmit javascript? I'll check it out.

Went to the new link...I do not see the problem?

Ah, darn, I have disabled voting for user that is not regisered. Anyway - the problem was that the submitboxes makes the table cell grow thicker, and that look very ugly.
I think that I have to live with it - it was a purely cosmetic thing, anyway.

If you would like to send me the source code I can take a lok at it. It is most likely caused by a <p tag> frontpage likes to throw those in, or it could be a simple matter of placing the from tags outside of the <td>

ME DO NOT use filthy FrontPage.
Frontpage = EVIL
ME use TEXT EDITOR. WUSS use frontpage, real men write the code by hand.
Me put form tags outside <td> it now works fine - you are god of HTML - thank YUO

[YeahBuddy]

Yes! Down with Frontpage!

Glad you got it working. I am not ashamed to say I use front page when setting up the general table layout, then break open wordpad clean up the mess and begin the real work.
