IE6 distortion problem

question:

<input type="hidden" name="sortBy" id="sortBy" value="${sortBy}"> below <form...> occupies a physical position. The code is as follows:

<form name="header_product_search_form" method="post" id="header_product_search_form" action="${ctxPath }/products/productsSearch.html?doAction=productSearchAction">
<input type="hidden" name="headSearchCategoryPath" id="headSearchCategoryPath" value="${categoryPath }">
<input type="hidden" name="headSearchAttributePath" id="headSearchAttributePath" value="${headSearchAttributePath }">
<input type="hidden" name="attributePathInputValue" id="attributePathInputValue" value="${attributePathInputValue}">
<input type="hidden" name="PrmItemsPerPage" id="PrmItemsPerPage" value="${pagingBean.itemsPerPage}">
<input type="hidden" name="PrmPageNo" id="PrmPageNo" value="${pagingBean.currentPage}">
<input type="hidden" name="PrmTotalItems" id="PrmTotalItems" value="${pagingBean.numberOfItems}">
<input type="hidden" name="PrmTotalPages" id="PrmTotalPages" value="${pagingBean.numberOfPages}">
<input type="hidden" name="sortBy" id="sortBy" value="${sortBy}">

..............

..............

</form>

As shown above, the red hidden input box is directly below the form tag, resulting in distorted display in IE. The hidden input box occupies the physical space, leaving a blank space in IE. It displays normally in Firefox.

Solution:

Put the hidden input box at the end of the form tag, that is, above </form>, and it will display normally in IE. The code is as follows:

<form name="header_product_search_form" method="post" id="header_product_search_form" action="${ctxPath }/products/productsSearch.html?doAction=productSearchAction">

<input type="hidden" name="headSearchCategoryPath" id="headSearchCategoryPath" value="${categoryPath }">
<input type="hidden" name="headSearchAttributePath" id="headSearchAttributePath" value="${headSearchAttributePath }">
<input type="hidden" name="attributePathInputValue" id="attributePathInputValue" value="${attributePathInputValue}">
<input type="hidden" name="PrmItemsPerPage" id="PrmItemsPerPage" value="${pagingBean.itemsPerPage}">
<input type="hidden" name="PrmPageNo" id="PrmPageNo" value="${pagingBean.currentPage}">
<input type="hidden" name="PrmTotalItems" id="PrmTotalItems" value="${pagingBean.numberOfItems}">
<input type="hidden" name="PrmTotalPages" id="PrmTotalPages" value="${pagingBean.numberOfPages}">
<input type="hidden" name="sortBy" id="sortBy" value="${sortBy}">

</form>
