form falls apart in browsers

FYI, some observations about your page:

The comments field box is adjustable in size when using Safari, but
not in Firefox?? I don’t know why.

I believe that 99.999% of the people sending you comments will not
understand the error message “Captcha Invalid”.
The error message should probably say something like “Error …
Incorrect Answer to math problem”.

You say cut and paste my email address, but that is an image and cut
and paste won’t work here.
Maybe the text in this image should simply say My email address is …

The text “send It” on the submit button negates the submit action. Put
your cursor on the “send it” text and the link finger cursor changes
to a text edit cursor and you can’t click to submit

This is a feature of the Safari 3 browser, it is not something you
have any control over as a developer. As far as I know, there is no
way to turn it off. OmniWeb allows you to pop a textarea open into a
new floating window, complete with genie effects as it pops out of
the textarea.

Thank you all for your help and comments on my form. LLE, I agree Captch invalid is crazy language to use for a form. This was a default value which I have changed to read :Math question incorrect, please try again. Thanks also for exposing the cut and paste issue.

thanks Walt for clearing up the naming fields issue.

This is what the default setting is for the CAPTCHA text in the
easiCaptcha action (the image is a C.A.P.T.C.H.A. and if wrong, it is
invalid) hence the text: Captcha invalid! please try again, and that
is why the option is given ‘in the action’ for the user to enter the
text they prefer to use in place of this text. :slight_smile:

If we are going to be pedantic then

Math question incorrect, please try again.

Is also incorrect as it is not the question that is incorrect but the answer!
