Need help placing a form

[Bellinis]

Hello all!

I created a small currency convertor for my vbadvanced portal, but I can't get it into place :(

Here's the code:

<form name="form1" method="post" action="">
<table width="160" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td colspan="2"> <?
include('function.php');
$value=$today_rate;

if ($today_rate>$yesterday_rate) {
$diff=$today_rate-$yesterday_rate;
if ($diff>0) {
$percent=substr($yesterday_rate/($diff*100),0,4);
} else {$percent='0.00';}
$sign='+';
}
else {
$diff=$yesterday_rate-$today_rate;
if ($diff>0) {
$percent=substr($yesterday_rate/($diff*100),0,4);
} else {$percent='0.00';}
$sign='-';
}

?>
<div align="center"><br>
<strong><span class="style3"><img src="EUR.gif" alt="EURO" width="18" height="12"> EUR
<img src="arrow.png" width="9" height="9"> CZK <img src="CZK.gif" alt="CZK" width="18" height="12"> </span></strong><span class="style7">:<strong><br>
1<span class="style3"> <img src="arrow.png" width="9" height="9"></span> <? echo $value;
if ($percent!='0.00') {echo '<br>'.$sign.' '.$percent.'%';
if ($sign=='-') {
echo '<img src="down.gif" alt="down" width="7" height="8">';
} else {echo '<img src="up.gif" alt="down" width="7" height="8">';}
} else {echo '<br>'.' '.$percent.'%';
echo '<img src="down.gif" alt="down" width="7" height="8">';
echo '<img src="up.gif" alt="down" width="7" height="8">';
};
?></strong></span>
</div>
</div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><strong>Reken om: </strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="107"><span class="style3">Waarde</span></td>
<td width="222"><input name="convert_value" type="text" id="convert_value" size="6"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td><select name="mode" id="select">
<option value="a" selected>EUR-CZK</option>
<option value="b">CZK - EUR</option>
</select></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td><input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit3" value="Reken om"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><div align="center" class="style3">
<?
if (isset($_REQUEST['submit'])) {
switch ($_REQUEST['mode']) {
case 'a':$result=$_REQUEST['convert_value']*$value;
echo $_REQUEST['convert_value'].' EUR='.$result.' CZK';
break;
case 'b':
$r=1/$value;
$result=$r*$_REQUEST['convert_value'];
echo $_REQUEST['convert_value'].' CZK='.substr($result,0,4).' EUR';
break;
}
}
?></div></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

<tr>
<td class="$bgclass">
content_here
</td>
</tr>

Also I tried placing that second piece of code, but it didn't work either (notice the bg color).

The working script can be found here:

What am I doing wrong? :(

I hope somebody can help me out here....

So how exactly is it not working?

Only problem is actually the background color which now seems to be the border color. if you look at the module above the currency box, then those colors are 'normal'.

Try replacing this code at the top:
<td colspan="2">

With this:
<td colspan="2" class="<?php echo $bgclass; ?>">

I appreciate your help Brian :)

I did change what you suggested, but now it looks like this: (see att.)
(better, but not the way it should be ;))

I guess I fixed it by replacing "$bgclass" with "alt1" :)
