I've been searching for a while on this, but still havent found an answer

I'm having issues with my comment box. Sometimes, friends of mine try to send me a comment, it says they have to be my friend to make comments about me, but other people can comment just fine. My profile isnt set to private, and I dont think it matters if theirs are, right? anyways my code's below...my comment box uses my a seperate div a "submit" img instead of that defautl [text-in-a-box] button everyone else has. My code looks right enough, but I dont understand how it can be my code since it works some of the time. If it was a coding issue, I'd think it'd be All-on or All-off. any thoughtS?

CODE
<style type="text/css">
.textarea{ z-index:3; position:absolute; height: 61px; width: 290px; left:75%; top:207px; margin-left:-145px; background-color: transparent;visibility: visible; }
.send {position: absolute; margin-left:240px; top: 62px; left:0;  height:32px; width:49px; visibility: visible;}
</style>

<div class="textarea">
<form method="post" action="http://comments.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.ConfirmComment" style="display:inline;"> <input type="hidden" name="
friendID" value="1306449"><textarea style="font-family:"Trebuchet MS"; background-color: transparent" name="f_comments" cols="52" rows="3">
</textarea>
<div class="send">
<input type="image" src="http://home.comcast.net/~stxblank/clrbox.gif" alt="Click this to submit comment"
value="SUBMIT" style="background-color: transparent; border-width:0px;"></div></form>
</div>

Tom posted a bulletin about this a really long time ago. I don't know if anyone read it but I did. You have to change the Post Comment URL because Tom changed the URL to a different one so that's why it shows up as " Error: You must be someone's friend to make comments about them. "

CODE
<form method="post" action="http://comments.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.ConfirmComment" style="display:inline;">

Where it says user doesn't that have to be your myspace ID or something?
That's what my problem was.

Yes, my friendID is correct, and I cant use a regular submit button because it wont go with my overlay theme.

What am i supposed to change it to? All the form action codes i've seen for this have been
"http://comments.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.ConfirmComment"

even then one listed here in the scripts section:
http://www.createblog.com/scripts/download.php?id=54

I guess my thing is I dont understand why it works only half the time? Some of my friends have no problem using my comment box, while others say it's broken... so I just hard coded an "Add Comment" link onto one of my divs as a temp fix
