Help validating form in HTML

I am having a hard time getting
http://www.anrodscreen.com/testsatisfaction.shtml to validate. Would
someone like to take a look at it and maybe give me a couple of pointers? I
am NOT an HTML guru but am trying to learn. I just plain don't understand
what the validation site is telling me...

Thanks,

Yes, I agree. Your opinions are correct, except for the "you". I am using
Front Page, I know, not good, but I am trying to learn by working in the
HTML view of the program. So, "I" did not put that in there, Front Page did
it. I will try your suggestions (that is how I was interpreting the
validation site too).
Thanks, Brent.

You've placed a form inside an anchor, which makes no sense. Change:

a name="form" id="form"
form action="/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl" method="post"

To:

form id="form" action="/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl" method="post"

You've made dozens of other mistakes involving anchors. If you want to
able
to link to a particular point on the page, set the 'id' attribute on an
appropriate element (as demonstrated above), instead of using an anchor.
You're also using the same anchor name ('form') in several places, which
doesn't make sense either.

AWESOME. I got it. I tried making some of those changes previously but
every time I did a change and revalidated, I ended up with more errors than
I started with so I would always undo it... I have it now, thank you very
much!!!
