I have a section like 

$myresult .= '<tbody>';
/*start printing the table wth feature and ratings */
for ($i = 1 ; $i < $numProperties; $i++){
  if($master_rating_properties['rating'.$i.'_name']){
    $myresult .= '<tr>';
    $myresult .= '<td width=\'22%\'>';
    $indfeature = 0;
    $indfeature = $row_product['property'.$i.'_avg'];
    $myresult .= $master_rating_properties['rating'.$i.'_name'].' ( '.$indfeature .')';
    $myresult .= '</td>';
    $myresult .= '<td colspan=\'0\' width=\'38%\' >';
    $tocheck = $indfeature;
    for($k = 0.5; $k <= 10.0; $k+=0.5){
      $tocheck = roundOff($tocheck);
      if(($tocheck) == $k) {
        $chk = "checked"; 
      } else { 
        $chk = ""; 
      }
      $myresult .= "<input class='star {split:2}' type='radio'";
      $myresult .= " name='drating$i' id='drating$i$k' value='$k'  '$chk'";
      $myresult .= " title='$k out of 10' disabled '/>";
    }
    /* for k loop end */
    /* added later ,was missing */
    $myresult .= '</td>';
    $myresult .= '</tr>';
  }
  /* end if loop */
}
/* end i for loop */
$myresult .= '</tbody>';
/* end tbody */

it works fine like printing the 10 stars(radio buttons) horizontally . but many a time all the 10 stars turn vertical.and after few browser refreshes it comes back to horizontal position. any idea .y this is causing problem? does tbody tag cause some problem.

i have done a demo page here. but its different form the code posted. that page i reverted back to old code. so posted this demo link to another page where this happens

http://abc.com/tempcollege . here also stars appears vertically sometimes.

    First a question. why are you using tables to display layout? tables are for tabular data.

    Given that you did not post the html, I am going to have to base this on a guess. I am guessing that the width 38% is not wide enough for the width of the 10 stars. so change that width to:

    (width of star image) * 10 -> in pixels

    and if you have any padding/margin/border/etc on the images, you will need to adjust the width accordingly.

    edit:

    Ok, I see it now. The problem is from a naughty div and a elements. The javascript does some fandangling to work around the IE box model problem… and the code is obviously screwing up. On reload, the javascript is telling the < div > tags to have a width of 85px and the < a > tags inside those div’s to have a margin of -85px.

    I recommend going to the google code page for that javascript and discussing this problem with them.
