How will spiders see this?

I ran across a site the other day that coded like this:

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form action="login.php" method="post" name="login">
All of the main content here.
</form>
</body>
</html>

Do spiders skip form tags? That is, will a spider come to this page and upon seeing <form> skip to </form> and then start looking for content?

My apologies if I've posted this to the incorrect forum.

A spider will see it very much as you saw it, not skipping anything, if it's on the page the spider will see it. Some spiders may give a relevance boost to form elements and content within a form.
