I have been trying to make some very basic forms. Everything I think should work once I get it on my server, but it looks like ****. I know you are supposed to use tables for an easy way to position, but I think I might also need CSS I am not sure. I know really nothing about tables. I just sort of guessed on what to do this is what I came up with.

Code:

<div id="sidebar">

<div id="texto">

<h4 class="sidebar"> Testimonies</h4>
<p>
<?php include('testmonies.php'); ?>

</p>

</div>
<h4>Links</h4>

<div id="links">

<div class="nav">
<p>
<?php
@include('includes/links.html');
?>

</p>
</div>


</div>
</div>



<div id="content">
<div id="text">
<h2>Contact</h2>
<p id="home">


<form id="feedback" method="post" action="">

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<label for="name">Name:</label>
<input name="name" id="name" type="text" class="formbox"
<?php if (isset($missing)) {
echo 'value="'.htmlentities($_POST['name']).'"';
} ?>/> *

</td>
<td>

<label for="budget">Budget:</label>
<input name="budget" id="budget" type="text" class="formbox"
<?php if (isset($missing)) {
echo 'value="'.htmlentities($_POST['budget']).'"';
} ?>/>

</td>
</tr>


<tr>
<td>
<label for="email">Email:</label>
<input name="email" id="email" type="text" class="formbox"
<?php if (isset($missing)) {
echo 'value="'.htmlentities($_POST['email']).'"';
} ?>/> *
</td>

<td>
Free quote?
<input name="quote" type="radio" value="Yes" id="Free Quote"
<?php
$OK = isset($_POST['quote']) ? true : false;
if ($OK && isset($missing) && $_POST['quote'] == 'Yes') { ?>
checked="checked"
<?php } ?>
/>
<label for="quote-yes">Yes</label>
<input name="quote" type="radio" value="No" id="subscribe-no"
<?php
if ($OK && isset($missing) && $_POST['quote'] == 'No') { ?>
checked="checked"
<?php } ?>
/>

<label for="quote-no">No</label>

</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>
<label for="comments">Prodject Description: *</label>
<textarea name="comments" id="comments" cols="54" rows="5"><?php
if (isset($missing)) {
echo htmlentities($_POST['comments']);
} ?></textarea>
</td>
<td>
</td>
</tr>


<tr>
<td>
<input name="send" id="send" type="submit" value="Submit" />
</td>
<td>
</td>
</tr>

</tabel>
</form>



<?php
if ($_POST && isset($missing)) {
?>
<p class="warning">Please complete all required missing item(s).</p>
<?php
}
elseif ($_POST && !$mailSent) {
?>
<p class="warning">Sorry, there was a problem sending your message. Please try later.</p>
<?php
}
elseif ($_POST && $mailSent) {
?>
<p><strong>Your message has been sent. Thank you.
</strong></p>
<?php }?>

</p>

<p id="news">

You're suffering from a slight bit of lysdexia there.
It's...

</table>

See what happens once you change that.

good catch. However I think I found my problem (30 problems to be exact) If you try and validate my code this is what I get..

1. Line 180, Column 43: document type does not allow element "form" here; missing one of "object", "ins", "del", "map" start-tag.<form id="feedback" method="post" action=""> ✉
   The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you've placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you've forgotten to close a previous element.
   One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "<p>" or "<table>") inside an inline element (such as "<a>", "<span>", or "<font>").
2. Line 187, Column 1: unclosed start-tag requires SHORTTAG YES. <?php if (isset($missing)) { ✉
3. Line 187, Column 1: end tag for "input" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified. <?php if (isset($missing)) { ✉
   You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
4. Line 186, Column 1: start tag was here. <input name="name" id="name" type="text" class="formbox"

11. Line 215, Column 55: value of attribute "id" must be a single token. <input name="quote" type="radio" value="Yes" id="FreeQuote" ✉
    This attribute can not take a space-separated list of words as a value, but only one word ("token"). This may also be caused by the use of a space for the value of an attribute which does not permit it.

I have no Idea what any of those mean. Is there like a directory somewhere that tells you what they mean? Anyway. I think my code might work better if those were fixed, but I don't really know how to fix it.

Please note also in my first post i fixed the first link to the screenshot.

Try putting your form inside of a div inside of an unclosed paragraph tag.

Most of the rest of those are being caused by your server not processing PHP as server-side code, which implies a server configuration error of some sort.
