strange formatting with forms

[nkammah]

Hi,

I have strange formatting with forms ( unfortunatly i don't have the
code here), but it is something like

<form ...
<input type="hidden" ...
<img value ="submit"...
</form>

<form ...
<input type="hidden" ...
<img value ="submit"...
</form>

<form ...
<input type="hidden" ...
<img value ="submit"...
</form>

I have a huge line height between my 2 small pictures, and I cannot
make the line-height properties work. I cannot align the 2 buttons as
well ( and I need to use 2 seperates forms for scripting purposes)...

Any idea?

I am not familiar at all with forms, and I just started with css.

Thank you

Nassim

The </form> tag has a tendancy to put a blank line in places you don't want.
So I typically "embed" the <form> and </form> tags inside a table. Ie:

<table><form><tr><td>
...
...
...
</td></tr></form></table>

Not pretty but it does work.

Not if you style away margins or put it inline.

Depending on the ability of the browser to correct your errors is a really
bad idea - especially in this case given how different browsers cope with
elements not allowed inside tables.

Do you expect to get a useful answer to such a vague question? Please set up
a page that demonstrates the real problem that you have. Add a verbal
explanation if needed.

<form ...
<input type="hidden" ...
<img value ="submit"...
</form>

<form ...
<input type="hidden" ...
<img value ="submit"...
</form>

What are you trying to accomplish? With this markup, you have consecutive
forms that cannot be submitted, and you have invalid markup (<img> must not
value a value="..." attribute). Why are using forms in the first place, and
why _several_ forms? With no actual user input?
