Eliminating the line break in the <FORM> tag

[bignerd]

When I declare the <form> tag in my HTML document, the browser automatically breaks to a newline. I have tried to declare the <form> tag within a column <td> of table <table> to prevent the trailing text from starting on a newline, but this method does not work. I am hope someone knows how to prevent this problem.

Visual Example

(without <form> tag)
----------------- ( <- <hr> tag )
my text ( <- following text)


(with <form> tag)
----------------- ( <- <hr> tag )
( <- <form> tag & unwanted line break )
my text ( <- following text)

Do you really need the <hr> tag? It seems that the tag affected the line break. But not sure. If only you put your codes here..

Hi,

This is what you want to do to get rid of that break:

TABLE CELL CONTENT</TD></FORM>
</TR>
</TABLE>

Put the closing form tag between the last </TD> & </TR>

It's not valid HTML but it is the workaround for that.

Hope this helps!

Here's an easy way to get rid of the break, and this one IS valid HTML:
[tt]
<form style=&quot;margin:0&quot;>
[/tt]

You could also say:
<form style=&quot;border:1px solid black;border-width:1px 0px;padding.5em 0em;margin:.5em 0em;&quot;>
This gives you:

----------------- ( <- form border )
   my form text   ( <- form text )
----------------- ( <- form border )

Then you don't need <hr> tags.
