Look like someone beat me to the mark on that one :)
Just to turn the tide a little, while the form itself is well
constructed, and the use of a gradient adds a little extra dimension to
the form, I have to say that personally i think the form is a little
"too much".
I get about half way down the form, and most of what i can see is just
fieldsets within fieldsets within fieldsets within fielsets... while
this in itself is not really a problem, I think the visual impact is a
little confusing when actually using a form "what section am i filling
out again?". I find myself having to scroll back up the page too often
to find out exactly where I am. I'd also question the logic behind some
of those fieldsets... a phone fieldset with only 1 field nested in an
address fieldset?
Dont get me wrong, I think it commendable to try and adopt a tableless
structure for such a long and complex form. I think however, that
personally, I would look rethink the structure of the form a little, and
maybe make sub-fieldsets a little less "rigid" in appearance. I also
think that for such a large form, an explanation of all the sections
wouldnt be a bad idea (so people are prepared for what needs to be
filled out).
Thanks,
David.

Hi Dean,
I'm not sure why Firefox is ignoring your clearer div.
I tried the following, however, and it seemed to do the trick:
fieldset {
clear:both;
}
The forms look really nice, btw.
