Form Field Problem

[KeredDrahcir]

I have an Enquiry Form but when you log onto it for some reason I can't foucs on any of the first three input fields on the first radio buttons.
The first field that can be focused on is the Enquiry field which is a text area.

In IE the only way I can focus is to click the very start or very end of the fields which does not help users, and I can't get them to focus at all in Firefox, Safari, Opera or Google Chrome.

I was able to set the foucs on the first field using Javascript that mean tabbing through the fields and if you click outside, you have to refresh to get the focus back. I've tried a javascript on click and still can't get it to work. I have an identical form on a different website that has no problems.

Can anyone suggest what is going on?

Perhaps you could post the code for us?

The code I'm using is here. I have got an submit button but I seem to have missed that out in the code.

<form name="Enquiry_F orm" method="post" action="enquiry _form.php">
<table style="text-align: left;">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">

Any suggestions anybody? I'm getting this problem across multiple websites and can't imagine how many enquiries I'm missing.

[KeredDrahcir]

Can anyone help? I'm really at a loss.

[KeredDrahcir]

I'm getting a similar problem. The first text box wont focus. The pointer stays as an arrow when I move the mouse over but the issue only occurs in Firefox. I've got no problems in IE or Safari.

Could anyone please help me?

When posting code please make sure to use code tags - in the editor it is the number sign.

Try giving this a shot and if you have any problems let me know.


Thanks, Death
