Thank you for the great feedback.
David, you should check it out in IE 6, it looks really nice

- just kidding!
With design, my philosophy is balance and harmony and the ’feel’ flows fluidly. I did try using the same header background on the bottom, it somehow kills the ’energy’
Zi, if anyone is interesting in the form code, I am more than happy to make a generic form template that contains all form elements (without eForm call though because I haven’t use eForm yet). It’s xhtml 1.0 strict/CSS layout and section 508/WCAG AAA compliance, with IE conditional comment being served. I do have a thing for nicely styling form as I can’t stand the Mozilla’s generic form field.
