// end hiding contents -->
</script>

These are the two  errors I am getting, it is saying I have never opened
form or select...



Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an SGML
parser.

    Line 90, column 24:

      document.write('</select>');
                              ^

    Error: end tag for element "SELECT" which is not open (explanation...)

    Line 92, column 22:

      document.write('</form>');
                            ^

    Error: end tag for element "FORM" which is not open (explanation...)


Way to get around this?

thanks always
