Where's the button gone?

Below is the entire content of a file containing a form. I can view everything exept the submit button and the text at the bottom.
I'm using firefox. I can see it fine in IE, and my friends can see it fine in firefox. What's causing the compatability issue?

HTML Code:
<html><body><p><p><p><font size'+2' color='#FF0000'></font><p>
<form action='news_post.php' method='POST'>
Title: <input name='title' maxlength='200' type='text' size='100'><br>
Text: <textarea name='text' type='text' rows='10' cols='40'></textarea><br>
Other: <textarea name='textmore' type='text' rows='10' cols='40'></textarea><br>
Sign Here: <input name='userwrote' maxlength='1000' type='text' value='akirablaid'><br>
Where to?<br><select name='section'>
<option value='0'>Project News</option>
<option value='1'>World News</option>
<option value='2'>Game News</option>
</section><br>
<input type='submit' value='submit'></form>
<br>the Text is what will be shown to the users in the news<br>
the Other is just other stuff, notes or whatever, for admins</body></html>

How about adding
Code:
name='Submit'
inside the tag? What's the URL of the page you're looking at. I have FF and can take a look.

good thought, but it didn't help
I can't give you the page cause it's inside an admin control panel, but that's the whole entirety of the code

O.k. I just used your code verbatim and created the page in .htm and in .php. Loaded both in FF and in IE. Saw submit button in both browsers along with the text at bottom.

How about browser cache?

Or, is it an include? loading into a window in your control panel? Does it work OUTSIDE the control panel for you or your friend?

it's no an include and it's not the cache =/
it's not loaded into anything at all, it's just got a simple login protection at the top. I took the coded and put it alone into a flat html file and there was no difference

How about renaming your ending <select> tag from <selection> to </select>

Running the code thru the validator would have caught that.
