Hi andrewlow, and welcome to Webmasterworld.

The problem you describe can come from a number of sources and sometimes pops up with a relatively small form which needs to "fit in" to a space in your design (e.g a search box).

Here are some things to check:

1) White space in code. Try moving the closing form tag immediately after the closing table tag. Some browsers react badly to white space in code.

2) I vaguely remember having a similar problem and discovering I had put the form inside an element that wasn't allowed. So validate your html. Also try changing the container for the form even if it does validate (e.g. from <td> to <div>, perhaps).

3) Check that none of your styling is affecting the table or form tags. If you have no styling then try styling the margins or padding of the table, form, or surrounding container. This should be one of your first checks, btw.

you might be seeing the form glitch depending on what version of DW you are using. basically once starting to populate a table inside of the form tag, the table will appear to extend down outside of the form tag, usually just saving your document, closing it, then re-opening it will solve your issue.
