Help with a Form design

[rastaIT34]

I designed and developed a registration form that you can see here:

http://ryanmartinbasketball.org/form.html

i used a pretty simple php form validator

a couple of questions:

> i am still learning how to create a proper form. i know there are a bunch of site out there that will design a form for you... but i want complete control over the look. How does this for look to you?

> the major issue i am having is blank emails with no forms filled out... to make sure the user fills in all the text fields i added a validator for each field. ( you can test it) i still am getting blank emails. i thought the validator was supposed to prevent that?

> would adding a anti-spam checker fix this?

any help would be appreciated. thank you.

Hi
[ul]
[li]Use the [tt]taborder[/tt] attribute consistently, currently tabbing over the form fields is a pain.[/li]
[li]Update the [tt]for[/tt] attributes of [tt]label[/tt] tags, they left as you copy & pasted them, so clicking the labels jumps the focus chaotically.[/li]
[li]Use HTML semantically, reading the page source full of [tt] [/tt] used for indenting is uncomfortable.[/li]
[li]Use CSS for formatting, the [tt]font[/tt] tag is deprecated, its use makes the design hard to adjust and the source code hard to read.[/li]
[li]Use unique [tt]id[/tt] attributes, duplicated [tt]id[/tt]s often lead to hardly debuggable behavior.[/li]
[li]If you have problem with the PHP validation, you have to post the PHP code. But not here, forum434 is the place for such questions.[/li]
