Mini login form not working

Happy new year guys!

I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem I'm having with a mini login form for Magento. I've been looking into my code for hours and could do with a fresh pair of eyes...

The problem is that the form isn't

a) posting for users to login

b) directing to the create account URL when the "create an account" button is clicked

c) Isn't directing to the forgot your password URL when "forgot password" is clicked

I wondering if there is a setting that I may have changed as the same thing happens if I use the mini login form from the "base" template.

I've got no idea...

   <form action="<?php echo $this->getPostActionUrl() ?>" method="post" id="form-validate">
      <p>
      <input type="text" class="input-xlarge" name="login[username]" id="mini-login" placeholder="<?php echo $this->__('Email:') ?>"></p><p>
      <input type="password" class="input-xlarge" name="login[password]" id="mini-password" placeholder="<?php echo $this->__('Password:') ?>"></p>
   
      </div>
  <div class="modal-footer">
     <button type="button" title="<?php echo $this->__('Create an Account') ?>" class="btn btn-success pull-left" onclick="window.location='<?php echo $this->getCreateAccountUrl() ?>';"><span><span><?php echo $this->__('Create an Account') ?></span></span></button>
    <button type="submit" title="<?php echo $this->__('Login') ?>" class="btn btn-info pull-left"><span><span><?php echo $this->__('Login') ?></button>
    <a href="<?php echo $this->getForgotPasswordUrl() ?>" class="f-left"><?php echo $this->__('Forgot Your Password?') ?>
      </a>
       </form>

Some help and a fresh pair of eyes will be a massive help
