Okay, I want those boxes on the right side to be the same height with a tiny space in between. When I change them, one box is on top and you can't see the other one. WHATS UP?

Thanks!

to begin with, this whole part:

<style>input{filter:progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.gra dient(gradienttype=0,startcolorstr=BLACK,endcolors tr=LIGHTBLUE);border: 1pt solid BLACK; font-family:terminal; color:BLACK; font-size:9px;letter-spacing:2pt;text-align:center:"}--></style> <style>a:hover{height:0;filter:mask(color:yellow);}</style>
<STYLE type="text/css"></STYLE>
<style>strike{background:LIGHTBLUE;color:black;font-family:"terminal";width:100%;line-height:11px;font-size:9px;text-align:left;text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;border:1px solid black}</style><style type="text/css"></style><style type="text/css"></style><style type="text/css"></style>

can be changed to this:

<style type="text/css">

</style>

and move that between the <head> and </head> tags :) Plus remove the space in the word "dximagetransform" to make the code work.
stuff like:

right:2;bottom:131;

should be:

right: 2px; bottom: 131px;

or anything aslong as there is anything behind the numbers, when you put only 2 there the browser doesn't know if it are points, cm, pixels or whatever.. Fix that first :)

Love,
Mirna

you forgot to put the style stuff in the head section, you forgot to close some important tags, and you had some typos. Try this:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
