Your rules are in need of help.
First off  I am not even sure what you are doing will work, i.e.;

--append or --table

These are written as '-A' and '-t'

Try these;

iptables -F -t nat 
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE 
# !!! Following line is wrapped !!!
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 8080 -i eth1 -j DNAT 
--to-destination 192.168.0.10:80
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -j ACCEPT 

You could and should tighten these rules up.  You should look into Stateful 
packet inspection for your firewall.  If you are looking to learn how to 
write your own rules use the following;
