With great hope I tried just applying padding, thinking IE7 > might obey, but no, my CSS padding is still ignored and very wide > padding is applied. What I see is, IE7 does honour width and padding on button elements. In your sample page the iefix stylesheet is applied for IE7 also and hence the button is only 10px wide. As the general case, you could set the width of the button in em's (depending on the text to be put as the button label) and specify the required padding properties. This works for Opera9,Firefox2 and IE7. Also apply the fix to IE<7 only. (I'm not sure about IE6 behaviour on this issue.) Hope that would help. -- Hari Kumar G <-H_K_G-> ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
