Hello Ken,

Don't worry... adding "incorrect" HTML code will not prevent your site from being listed in the search engines. And BTW: The code you added is not the one that the script provides for you through the "HTML Code / Links" feature.

I use HTML forms all over my site and most likely there are also at some points HTML formating mistakes... still, the site is listed in all major search engines.

Anyway, here is a "fixed" example form:

<form method="POST" action="http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/mmf/sub.pl">
<p>Email address: <input type="text" name="email" size="20"><br>
First name: <input type="text" name="fname" size="20"><br>
Last name: <input type="text" name="lname" size="20"><br>
4th Field: <input type="text" name="misc1" size="20"></p>
<input type="hidden" name="task" value="subscribe">
<input type="hidden" name="list" value="test">
<input type="hidden" name="language" value="eng">
<p><input type="submit" value="Add Address"></p>
</form>


To "fix" your own HTML form... simply follow the instructions your optimization program gave you:

[26] -> add: type="text"
[27] -> add: type="text"
[28] -> add: type="text"
[29] -> add: </font> tag before <hr> element
[31] -> add: </span> end tag before <hr> tag
[34] -> move or remove </font> tag
[36] -> move or remove </span> tag
[37] -> move or remove </span> tag
[38] -> remove <p></p> tags
Sincerely,

Frank Bauer
