IE mixing forms

Hi
I have a page in which use multiple forms in a table and another form
one form contains checkboxes in each table row and other forms are save buttons having some hidden fields each
Here is a display of my description:

I noticed that when I use IE, and press submit for checkboxes, none of form fields are sent to the action page
Here is sample of the html code:

<form method="post" action="contact-page.php" style="display: inline;">

<tr>
<td align="center"><font size="-2"> 
<form style="margin: 0pt; padding: 0pt;">
<input name="vname" id="vname" value="email@usa.com" type="hidden">
<input name="myname" id="myname" value="matt@email2.com" type="hidden">
<input name="txthintid" id="txthintid" value="4" type="hidden">
<div id="txtHint4">
<input value="Save" onclick="saveinfo(vname.value,myname.value,txthintid.value)" type="button">
</div>
</form>

</font></td>

<td><font size="-2">Anaheim</font></td>
<td><font size="-2"><a href="http://domain.com/" class="gray">Website</a></font></td>
<td align="center"><a href="http://www.mysite.com/contact-vendor.php?bname=Advanced%20Video%20-%20Orange%20County%20Wedding%20Video&amp;bemail=email@usa.com"> <img src="test.php_files/envelope.gif" alt="Contact Vendor" border="1"></a></td>
<td align="center">
<input name="check1" value="Advanced Video - Orange County Wedding Video_toexplode_aemail@usa.com" type="checkbox"></td>
</tr>

</form>

How can I prevent this problem?
Thanks for your help

 

You currently have a form in another form, that's the problem.
I think the best solution, would be removing the form of the save forms, and replacing that with a image, as I believe it is not supposed to take you to any page?

 

You are right there. But it doesn't have to be replaced with an image, the input type is "button" so removing the nested/inner form tags alone should do the trick here.

 

the save button is for saving some info using Ajax. How can I do that without reloading the page and not using nested forms?

 

By simply removing the form tags of the input button, like Leron said.
Another possibility would be adding 'return' to the onclick statement of the button.

<input value="Save" onclick="return saveinfo(vname.value,myname.value,txthintid.value)" type="button">

Code (markup):

Also add 'return false;' at the end of the saveinfo function.
