That is the least of your worries.  Currently the input fields are all 
overlapping and the user can't see the data s/he is trying to enter.  
All the absolute positioning is causing you no end of difficulties.  
Either a table or something like this

-------  html ------
<div class="row">
<label for="secondname">Surname*</label>
<input type="text" id="secondname" name="secondName" maxlength="30"  
tabindex="106" />
</div>
------  css  ------
.row { float: left; clear: left; }
.row label { float: left; width: 16em }
.row input, .row select { float: left; }

would get you closer to where you want to be.
