    I've been working on it for a while, and I think I have a pretty unique contact form going on at www.monochromedia.com/contact.html.

    Anyway, I was just wondering what you guys thought of it.

    Feedback?

    Thanks,
    Peter

    For me it is looking good except that ip showing there and other backgrounds in forms ... I think it is not needed to be there ;)

    I quite like the quote marks, it is certainly different. I'm not too keen on the ip address as the background in the name form though.
    The ip address is overlapped by the default text in the name box making it look a bit messy, that is the only bit i'd change. It doesn't fit with the rest of the sleek design.

    Yeah :(. I noticed that too, after spending so much time to get it to work. I'll probably switch it back.

    Alright, I removed the IP in the field background. (The most unique part of the form :()

    Looks nice. I wonder how much discrepancy there will be though, between peoples' actual names, and what they'd prefer to be called ;)

    i like the design of the page :) . the form is like a normal one.. with a status bar before the send button.. i like that. what i dont like when i put in the email box something like cristi_gra and click anywhere on the page.. then i click back to complete the email address with a @something.com my text that i have in there: cristi_gra is deleted .. and i have to start all over.. not a big thing for me but can be for some ppl. As a sugestion i`ll say to put an ! mark next to the field that is not corect like if i put in the e-mail box something and forgot to put @something.com next to the box in the right side to have a ! mark in red and after i fill it the right way, the ! mark will be replaced with a done mark in green. just a sugestion i really like this tips of forms.. it gives a pro look to the owner.
    Well good luck, and keep up the great work!

    that looks nice.. but i see that the status bar of the form filling is not working on Firefox browser, but it works on IE.

    the status bar is really good for the form, it helps you to know if you are on the right way.. maybe you can find a way t make it work again.. and the page to be validated in the same time.
    Good luck!

    With this doctype, FireFox says no for some reason. I might have to resort to using frames.

    I've already tried those that would make a difference. I'll just find a new one/learn JavaScript and code my own. Thanks for the help though. :)
