DIV expanding too far

I'm creating a calendar script, and I've been fiddling with CSS all morning. The problem can be seen here. When you click one of the radio boxes next to the 'Recurrence' field at the bottom of the form, a div should be displayed containing further options, but the div's just obliterating the layout and expanding the page sideways. I want it to stay 405px wide like it's set to in the stylesheet, but expand down instead. Could anyone provide any tips as to how I'd achieve this?

Personally, I'd change that div to a <ul> of items, so that it displayed the options vertically...

Or are you after some other effect?

I'd be inclined to simplify the whole design. All that tables inside divs inside tables inside divs... Arg!

You should run your page(s) through the validation tools available as well - (x)html and css.
