I think it's a browser bug. I had a form webapp that only has to be IE5 compatible and
just for fun fun tested it in NS 4.75. it had form elements in a table in an regular
inline DIV layer and it simply ignored rendering the form elements, while the rest was
intact. As it wasn't required i didn't pay it much attention, just remembered that
I've remebered that i've read something about it being a NS4.x bug with form elements
inside tables inside divs or simply nested divs. i think though that it probably works
fine if you don't use any table in the layer or nest it as child of another layer.
Probably be a hell if you must make it work in NS4.x, but you could make use of blank
spaces ( ) and regular <br>'s even if that method isn't as slick and flexible.
Who said webdesign was too easy? :)
