Hello Birney,

Cool job you have.

Generally the designers I work with use tables extensively to control layout on web pages.

<form>
<table>
  <tr>
    <td rowspan=3>
    <img usemap=&quot;#colmap&quot; src=&quot;colortable.gif&quot; border=0 width=289 height=67 align =middle>
    </td>  
    <td>
      <INPUT TYPE=&quot;radio&quot; NAME=&quot;ColorChoice&quot;  VALUE=&quot;Background Color&quot;> Background Color </input>
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>
    <INPUT TYPE=&quot;radio&quot; NAME=&quot;ColorChoice&quot; VALUE=&quot;Font Color&quot;> Font Color </input>
    </td>
    <td>
      <INPUT TYPE=&quot;radio&quot; NAME=&quot;ColorChoice&quot; VALUE=&quot;Scroll Bar Color&quot;> Scrollbar Color </input>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>

Not quite sure what you are doing with the image map and the anchor tags.
Also my HTML reference manual says </img> is forbidden.

And these items {Scrollbar Color, Font Color, Background Color} are not mutually exclusive so radio buttons are not appropriate. Maybe you need three sets of radio buttons, one each for Scrollbar, Font, and Background colors. Each set might have choices like {Red, Green Blue}.
