You have HTML code like:

<INPUT TYPE=radio NAME=Gift Value=Diamond Bracelet CHECKED>Diamond Bra +celet<BR><BR>

I suspect that not quoting attribute values is going to cause you problems. Does the attribute Value equal "Diamond", "Diamond Bracelet", "Diamond Bracelet CHECKED" or is it left unassigned due to silently ignoring a parsing error. Quoting the attribute values makes it absolutely clear, both to human readers and browsers alike, what the attribute value is.

<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="Gift" Value="Diamond Bracelet" CHECKED>Diamo +nd Bracelet<BR><BR>

Quoted attribute values are always allowed; under certain conditions, quoting is optional. I find it easier to simply quote all values and then no longer concern myself with this aspect of HTML markup syntax.

Update: s/assigned/unassigned/
