I'm sorry, I should have said that I hadn't got round to testing in Firefox
yet. I only tested in IE7 for now. I tend to try to get it right in one browser
first, then tweak it later for the others and yes, the float:left *does* make a
difference in other browsers.
Thanks for the 'fix'. It certainly makes it all stand to attention and salute.
:-)
You're right about the <h3>s, they don't work properly. This appears to be
because the form is laid out in a strange fashion and try as I may, I can't
make anything stay inline after the form input fields. I have come up with a
really foul method of twin negative margins that will make the <h3>s do what I
want, but I'm far from happy about the method. It's just plain wrong, and I'm
not proud of it as a fix.
Regards,
Alan.

It makes a difference in Firefox. You were checking with IE, I was checking
your page in FF...
This is your page with the fix for IE (keep using float for other browsers):

As a side note, I'm not sure about your use of h3s in there (Maximum x
characters) and you'll have to take care of these as they do not follow floats
in IE.
