hi Eric, actually on my ff 3.0.5, it breaks and it worked when padding set to 0 for textarea.
screen.css at line 244 textarea { height:250px; padding:0; /* set to 0 */ width:390px; } padding of 5px actually pushed the textarea out of bounce. cheers, virgil http://www.jampmark.com On Sat, Jan 10, 2009 at 5:28 AM, Eric Cash <etc...@gmail.com> wrote: > I hate form elements... > > I've run into this problem before, I don't think I've ever actually > understood it. > > On this page > > http://scotaganda.com/work/MineKey/opinionsBoard.html > > the "Express your opinion" textarea is fine in firefox, but both safari and > ie place "control" on the right hand side of the textarea, which makes it > grow about 8px, and break the layout. > > I'm not sure of the correct way to get this thing to behave, and I'd rather > not keep poking around in the dark here > > I have a div wrapped around it, with the correct width, and I'm not sure why > just setting the textarea's width to 100% won't correctly display, any help > here? ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
