How do you make a textbox appear the same size in Mozzila and IE, I will setup a textbox and it will accept like 3 chars then when I view in mozilla it is huge.. How can I do this in CSS?


Thanks

I don't think you CAN do it in CSS. My guess is you'll need to detect the browser, and then set the text area size to suit.

I'm not sure this will be exactly the same in all browsers, however you can set the width and height like so...

<input type="text" name="blah" style="width:100px; height:30px;" />

I will check it when I have access but I believe I set width and all is well in IE and then in mozzilla it grows long... For example I have 5 fields on an input field if they grow big the line gets all messed up..

Thanks

Chromate, Thanks simple enough, width: px seems to do just fine.
