Hi folks:

I have a question/issue with this page:

http://www.maineddc.org/draft/index.htm

I decided to switch my doctype from 4.01 transitional to 4.01 strict. 
Which ended up with me getting lots of errors on the two forms.  The two 
forms are the search from WebSide Story and the javascipt style switcher 
from A List Apart (which used xhtml transitonal, btw).

so, the validator essentially said i had to enclose all inputs in a 
block element.  I did something weird, maybe creative?, i made a 
division called class="null" and didn't put anything in the css for it. 
  Of course, it was then displayed as a block, which i didn't want, so I 
just said "display: inline" in the css.

Everything is fine now, but I'm sure I'm missing something theory or 
something about how I should have dealt with this.  and doubt very much 
that i've done it the best way.

I wondered if I should have used "labels", but ran it through Cynthia 
before making the changes and it didn't say anything about that.

thanks very much for helping me correct my errant ways.

Donna
