Form Fluke or phenomenon

I have this form problem. On this page:

http://www.california-bankruptcy.info/contactus.htm

You can't select the text boxes labelled "city" and "message" unless you spend an hour to do each. Works in firefox but not IE6

I dont have any idea whats causing this or how to fix it.

Please advise

Seems fine to me, young man.

 

have you tried clicking in the general area of the box? you can use the tab button, but generally with IE 6 you cant just click on it to select it, you have to click near the very first character

 

Oh....IE?

I don't use IE.

Yeah, it's messed up in IE...but i can't tell why.- sorry

 

It looks like it might be to do with your html not validating and IE trying to have a best stab at what it thinks you want whereas Firefox will just ignore it.

It looks IE is setting those two input fields to have no internal width or height (you can click into the top edge of both fields)

Correct what you can in the html and see what happens when the page validates. Just noticed an error in your css (missing '#' in A:hover { COLOR: 618aac })

Good luck

Bloody wonderful... I cant figure it out. Except if I add extra rows on the right navigation, it allows for some areas to be clickable, but not all of it.

 

The problem is in your table structure. Moving the form above the table like this...

          <form method="POST" action="bankruptcy-california-thankyou.php">
              <input type="text" name="contact" size="30">              
				<input type="text" name="city" size="30">
				<textarea name="message" cols="45" rows="15"></textarea>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Send Message">
</form>

PHP:

Makes it work fine.

Removing the table and having only the form works fine too.

      <TD width="72%" rowSpan=2 valign="top">
      
	  <br>
            <h1>Ask Your Personal Bankruptcy Questions</h1>

			<HR color =" #d3dcdf"  align=left width=540 noShade SIZE=2>
           
		   
		   <form method="POST" action="bankruptcy-california-thankyou.php">
              <input type="text" name="contact" size="30">              
                <input type="text" name="city" size="30">
                <textarea name="message" cols="45" rows="15"></textarea>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Send Message">
</form> 
		   
		   
		   </TD> 

PHP:

I'll leave it up to you to sort out the details.
