i need to know why an enquiry form that ask us to fill in and become wont work when we press the submit button in the bottom after we finished fill in the form. Then, why we view the form in internet explorer and netscape will be different where nescape will have smaller fonts and we can't fill anything in the form field!

1 - Are you writing your own?
2 - What environment (i.e., VBS, HTML, etc.)?

As for the discrepancies between browsers - get used to it. You can control this a little bit, but there is no magic bullet.

Cascading Style Sheets? Only works with "modern" browsers, and even then, works differently in different browsers. If you're writing for the WWW, you need to expect that your users will be accessing your site with a variety of platforms (different browsers, different O/S, even different H/Wcan make a difference). It is up to the developer to write the app. so that these differences are not critical.

If it is critical, then you will need to do some browser sniffing. The best browser sniffer I have found is from:
