Re: is there an alternative to this code?

I'm not sure if this will be helpful, but I have always found that the only reliable way to make a <form> tag disappear (meaning, not affect alignment or create any vertical space) is to place it outside of row tags yet inside the table: <table> <form ...> <tr>

     <td>Table Cell</td>

</tr> </table> @ Edwin wrote:

Yes, I agree, this is an html/css question... but you can try this. Instead of putting your <form> tags inside the <td> tags, why not put them outside the <table> tags like this: <form> <table> <tr> <td><input type=whatever... /></td> </tr> </table> </form> I think this won't destroy the "alignment".
