Default Different input lengths - Why?

If you look at http://www.corporateairamerica.com/testlength.html
you will see a simple table. In IE7 the input lengths are different.
In Firefox they are the same.

I discovered this while trying to modify the main page at
http://www.corporateairamerica.com

If you look at this page in IE7 or Firefox both input lengths are the
same. To my eye this page is using the same code in the login table as
above.

Any suggestions?

Tom

Ask in an appropriate group. This is nothing to do with PHP.

Sorry, you are correct. Can you suggest a good HTML group?

One with HTML in it's name? Doesn't Forte Agent have a button to list all
newsgroups and search on them?

alt.html
comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html

The same bloody way I found out. Go over there and have a damn look.

Which HTML newsgroup is a good one is *off topic* here.

Tom - set the input box size with css to make them the same size, or
add style="width:??px;" where ?? is the number of pixels wide to the
input tag. As for why they are different, IE uses a different font for
passwords, text and text areas and the size is depentent on the font.

Also - you should ask this in the appropriate group, but it took me
all of 2 minutes to answer the question, so guys / gals why not just
answer a simple question even if it is off topic then start an
argument?

Because America is rife with right-wingers and evangelicals - and they
believe it is their duty to tell others how to behave.
