The error message is clear: you cannot make a "form" element a child of "table". It can be a child of "td" though.
Perhaps you just need to create table-like alignment for your form elements. There is a number of ways to achieve that, in particular, via CSS.

Table would help, too. You just need to make form element a parent element, and put the whole table as a child element of form. I think the rest of it should be clear.
