you knew to quote values up there , , , but, ,

<form name='loc' action='testsac.aspx' method='get'>
<table class='s0' width='100%' cellpadding='1px' cellspacing='1em' align='center' border='1px'>
<tr class='s0' align='center'>
<td>
Search For:
<input class='s0' size='50' name='src'  value='<% =src %> '>

Values are quoted in html,
measurements other than zero have a dimension
/> is Xhtml and may cause errors in html

for code problems where the solution doesnt jump out and bite you, plug the code into http://validator.w3.org/ and let it find the problems
