Can't figure out for the life of me what's wrong with it..

It uses <font> tags, that's what's wrong.

Seriously; how are we supposed to tell you anything if you don't tell us what it's doing that is wrong or what error messages you get or what attempts you've already made to debug it? It's not like we can run it to see.

Nevertheless, if you used this board's [php] tags around your code it would be a lot easier to read and in fact the error would be highlighted.

You used " instead of ' for one of your HTML attributes. I'm guessing that the error message you forgot to describe involved a parse error on that line.
