If you visit a site I'm working on here:
http://thechasedesign.com/burnt-toast/?page_id=21
You will see that I've copied and pasted some code from a Tumblr theme for the form on the page.
Everything seems to work fine EXCEPT the Submit button which only the very very left side of the button seems to work. The rest of the button area doesn't work.
Is there something overlaying the element and blocking it? Thanks!

Yes, your .social-media-row div is basically covering most of your button. You can see this if you try to right click (click with two fingers on a mac) in chrome and select "inspect element." You'll see that that div is on top of your button, but's the padding of the div that is overlaying it, so it's not evident at plain site. You can hit the delete key while focused on that div in the inspector and it will remove it (don't worry, it won't actually delete from your site and if you refresh you'll see it back in it's original place) and see that the button is now focusable.
