Dropdown boxes alignment.

[Lynford]

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help ?

My main problem is a total lack of knowledge about HTML (but I don't suppose you can do anything about that !!!)

http://www.fromthelane.co.uk/forum/default.asp is my Website (it's a Message board)

What I want to do is put the Google search, and the Dropdown box called FTL - Links, onto the same line as each other. I have tried adjusting the code, but really don't know what I am doing

This is the code for the Google search, and the Dropdown box:

<!-- Search Google -->
<center>
<form method="get" action="http://www.google.co.uk/custom" target="google_window">
<table bgcolor="#f0f8ff">
<tr><td nowrap="nowrap" valign="top" align="left" height="32">
 
<input type="text" name="q" size="31" maxlength="255" value=""></input>
<input type="submit" name="sa" value="Google Search"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="client" value="pub-4979297490720628"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="forid" value="1"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="ie" value="ISO-8859-1"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="oe" value="ISO-8859-1"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="cof" value="GALT:#008000;GL:1;DIV:#336699;VLC:663399;AH:center;BGC:FFFFFF;LBGC:336699;ALC:0000FF;LC:0000FF;T:000000;GFNT:0000FF;GIMP:0000FF;FORID:1;"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="hl" value="en"></input>
</td></tr></table>
</form>
</center>
<!-- Search Google -->
<center><select name="choose" onChange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)">
<option selected>FTL - Links</option>
<option value="http://fromthelane.co.uk/Docs/Forumguidelines.htm" target="_blank">FTL Forum guidlines</option>
<option value="http://topspurs.com">Topspurs.com</option>

</select>

Thanks very much for any help.

Thanks for the reply Dave

However, I really can't see what to to. Could you tell me which TABLES link it's in please ? I got the Google search from Google and my Dropdown box from another site and really haven't a clue about it, I just want them on the same line !

Having said that, do you think it would be too complicated for a total newbie ? If so I will give it a miss

Thanks again for the reply

You need to learn tables, so I suggest reading the entire HTML Table section.
