VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 1939

Details

IE and NGlayout render padding on the left side of textfields slightly differently -- IE has no padding on the left, and we have what looks to be about 3-5 pixels. The workaround is for the developer to explicitly state what the padding should be: <input type="text" style="width: 200px; padding-left:10px;" name="realname"> Or, to simulate the default IE behavior: <input type="text" style="width: 200px; padding-left:0px;" name="realname"> etc. Currently we are not honoring the padding declarations. See this example in IE5 for a working example. Original reporter: irutherf@paranet.com
