Fix the obvious ones that you "sort of" understand. Many errors cause a
cascade of further errors.
For example you are missing a > on your <script tag. Put that in and quite
a few subsequent errors will disappear.
Others:
Remove the cargo cult <!-- comments from within your script element.
<script> elements *require* a type attribute. The language attribute is
deprecated. Refer to the specification:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/
There is no attribute "height" for the table element. Pretty clear, it's
not defined in the specifications.
Ditto bordercolour.
As to the form and p end tags missing, I havn't looked but you are probably
nesting a form element inside a paragraph. This is not allowed. The <form>
tag will close the existing <p> element. An implied </p> is inserted by the
validator. Your </p> is an orphan, so in error.
Last:
Fire up settings>control panel>add/remove programs. Navigate to
Dreamweaver. Choose "remove".
Learn how to code using a vanilla text editor and a browser to test with.
Once you can produce your page all by your self you will be experienced
enough to reinstall DW and be savvy enough to not let it insert all the
rubbish into your page that it *will* insert if you let it.
