Hi Shabith,

I see a few things that might be causing a problem:

1. You add a comma after the last item in each object literal. These commas should be removed (FF is more forgiving of such errors):

                $('#contactform').animate({
                                        opacity:0,
                                        width:"0", // <-- remove comma
                                        },'slow',null,function(){
                $('#results').animate({
                                        opacity:100,
                                        width:"205px",
                                        background-image:"images/loading.gif", 
<-- remove comma
                                        },'slow');

2. Background image isn't a property that can be animated with the .animate() method (at least not without the color plugin). Furthermore, if you are going to refer to a background image in an object literal, you need to either put background-image in quotes or use the DOM term, backgroundImage, instead. Finally, background image value should be written like url(path/to/file.gif)

3. I don't think the "null" argument is necessary. Not sure if it would cause problems, but it probably doesn't need to be there.

Hope that points you in the right direction.

                $('#contactform').animate({
                                        opacity:0,
                                        width:"0",
                                        },'slow',null,function(){
                $('#results').animate({
                                        opacity:100,
                                        width:"205px",
                                        background-image:"images/loading.gif",
                                        },'slow');


                        });
        }
else
        {
                //alert('ss');
        };

function MM_validateForm() { //v4.0
 if (document.getElementById){
   var
i,p,q,nm,test,num,min,max,errors='',args=MM_validateForm.arguments;
   for (i=0; i<(args.length-2); i+=3) { test=args[i+2];
val=document.getElementById(args[i]);
     if (val) { nm=val.name; if ((val=val.value)!="") {
       if (test.indexOf('isEmail')!=-1) { p=val.indexOf('@');
         if (p<1 || p==(val.length-1)) errors+='- '+nm+' must contain
an e-mail address.\n';
       } else if (test!='R') { num = parseFloat(val);
         if (isNaN(val)) errors+='- '+nm+' must contain a number.\n';
         if (test.indexOf('inRange') != -1) { p=test.indexOf(':');
           min=test.substring(8,p); max=test.substring(p+1);
           if (num<min || max<num) errors+='- '+nm+' must contain a
number between '+min+' and '+max+'.\n';
     } } } else if (test.charAt(0) == 'R') errors += '- '+nm+' is
required.\n'; }
   } if (errors) document.MM_returnValue = (errors == '');
        return(errors);
} }
};

thanks
