google search not W3 compliant

[bensd]

I am in the process of building a site and have included a search box, when i came to check that it was valid code there were several errors with the google search.

This is their code:

 
<!-- SiteSearch Google -->
<form method="get" action="http://www.boyzone.info/search.php" target="_top">
<table border="0" bgcolor="#B2A56E">
<tr><td nowrap="nowrap" valign="top" align="left" height="32">

</td>
<td nowrap="nowrap">
<input type="hidden" name="domains" value="www.boyzone.info"></input>
<label for="sbi" style="display: none">Enter your search terms</label>
<input type="text" name="q" size="31" maxlength="255" value="" id="sbi"></input>
</td></tr>
<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td nowrap="nowrap">
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="" checked id="ss0"></input>
<label for="ss0" title="Search the Web"><font size="-1" color="#000000">Web</font></label></td>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="www.boyzone.info" id="ss1"></input>
<label for="ss1" title="Search www.boyzone.info"><font size="-1" color="#000000">www.boyzone.info</font></label></td>
</tr>
</table>
<label for="sbb" style="display: none">Submit search form</label>
<input type="submit" name="sa" value="Google Search" id="sbb"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="client" value="pub-4425839920190753"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="forid" value="1"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="channel" value="9504074447"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="ie" value="ISO-8859-1"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="oe" value="ISO-8859-1"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="cof" value="GALT:#008000;GL:1;DIV:#336699;VLC:663399;AH:center;BGC:FFFFFF;LBGC:336699;ALC:0000FF;LC:0000FF;T:000000;GFNT:0000FF;GIMP:0000FF;FORID:11"></input>
<input type="hidden" name="hl" value="en"></input>
</td></tr></table>
</form>
<!-- SiteSearch Google -->

Has anyone else encountered it?

Does anyone no how to fix it?

What would you do? should i just leave it, as it is google's code and not mine?

Any thoughts appreciated.

What you need to keep:
<form> tags
<input> tags (text & hidden)
I would just drop the table and style the search box with CSS

try changing <input ... checked ...> to <input ... checked="checked" ...>
