working with IE but not with firefox

I've been writing a jsp page and found strange problems with firefox.
The page has a table and a form. The structure is something like <form><table>....</table></form>. This works fine with IE but when I open it in firefox it causes problems like tabindexing not working and also if <a href...></a> links are having problems like the page goes up first and then we've to click the link again to go to that link.
These things work fine if I remove the form tag completely.

Hi and welcome to DEVPPL.

What if you try to add the <form> in the beginning after the first <td>. And </form> just before the last <td> in the table. Will that work?
