Form fields not displaying in IE

Hi Revolt, looks like you have an open <span> tag (missing a closing </span> tag) with an inline style changing the text color to white. http://grab.by/agUN

If you look at the actual page source and not just the output from the inspector, you'll see that the span inside the HREF is not actually closed. The inspector is closing it for you.. and some of the browsers are being nice and rendering it correctly, even though the markup isn't correct.

The forms display properly in IE with the default styling. You can check the form preview to verify that. The problem is simply incorrect markup in your theme combined with inline styles that set the font color to white, which of course blends in with the white background and appears to be missing.
You need to clean up your markup and remove the inline styles in your theme. You can check the markup for errors by using the W3C validation service if you'd like. It's a handy way to check for unclosed tags, etc.
