Thank you for taking the time to read/answer this.
First thing: my career page has a pre-made contact form that i turned into a job application. I have two layout questions:
1.) How do i get the 'checkbox' buttons to line up a little closer to each other. I tried td colspan="2" which is the case later in the form for 2 buttons (submit/reset 1 which i removed), but to no avail, "No" appears well to the right of "Yes." I'd like to have it relatively closer to "Yes."
2.) When you pull the drop down for "Experience" down, it forces the image below the form. Once you select your option, the image goes back to its place. Do i absolutely have to absolute position the graphic? Or can i add an overflow maybe to the dropdown? I can't figure it out.
FancyForm is the form i'm using.
Here is the HTML:
<form id="contact-form" name="contact-form" method="post" action="submit.php">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
