Thanks for the quick reply Andy, but that doesn't seem to help. I added the style width to the page, and it still looks the same. As I stated before, the problem arises when I define the TD tag to have a certain font. I've tried using different fonts with the same results. If I remove the style from the TD tag, the form looks fine in NN4. Are you viewing the page in NN4?

The input boxes are given two definitions - NN uses one and IE uses the other. One unit of size=8 pixels

Andy,

I am setting the size of the box using the size tag. I even tried using that width style but that made no difference. Check out my code, I made a simplifed version of my form for you to check out:

this looks fine in IE and NN6, but not in NN4. If i remove the style from the code, it works fine in NN4.
If there's anything wrong with my code, please let me know. This is starting to piss me off. Thanks.

Oh, and thanks for the welcome Max

Hey Alch, Welcome to TWF!

as far as the problem goes... I don't even have NN installed, so I'm of no use. sorry.

To get the same 'box' size with IE/NN4, define the size of the input box in two ways, for example:

input type=text size=30 style="width: 180px">

Note: may vary at different screen sizes.
