you need to provide </table> twice to close the <table> tag that you open.

You really DO need the <FORM> </FORM> tags for this to work in Netscape.

Try this and you'll see it now shows up in Netscape.
<FORM>
<input type="text" name="custID" value="012345" size="20" maxlength="8">
<INPUT type=text name=url size=70 value="http://">
</FORM>

IE is not as picky as NETSCAPE about TAGS.

To start with , it is a must to close all tags ,which u had'nt done
Secondly , <input type> needs to be placed in a <form tag> as seen below for it to be viewed in Netscape

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE></TITLE>
<META name="description" content="">
<META name="keywords" content="">
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR=FFFFFF TEXT=000000 LINK=0000FF VLINK=800080>
<table width="600" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
      <tr>
            <td width="600">
                  <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" border="0">
                        <tr>
                        <form name="test">
                              <td nowrap><a style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;font-weight:bold">Customer Number:  </td>
                              <td><input type="text" name="custID" value="012345" size="20" maxlength="8"></td>
                              <td><a style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;font-weight:bold">Name:  </td>
                              <td><input type="text" name="custName" value="Kyle's Customer" size="40" maxlength="40"></td>
                        </form>
                        </tr>
