I posted some useability comments previously.

I also ran it through HTML Doctor (at
http://www.doctor-html.com/RxHTML/ , then press SINGLE PAGE )

GRAPHICS
========
The main thing is that your graphics are either missing ALT text or
HEIGHT/WIDTH numbers.

For the /common/.../spacer.gif (and any other graphic that doesn't
"say" anything), it should be ALT="".

Please also put HEIGHT= and WIDTH= on every single graphic.

BROWSER COMPATABILITY
=====================
It seemed to work OK for Netscape 6.2, but Dr HTML notes the use of the
<SCRIPT TYPE=... > tag and attribute. It's not even understood by
Netscape 7.0; did you get that past the validator?

JAVASCRIPT
==========
Another general comment I'd make [to everyone] is develop without
javascript - have the server do all the work. When that works, add
javascript for convenience: things like focus points, mouseovers, field
validation.

But make sure you do an equal field validation at the server.
