the problem is the form elements are the wrong size. I've added a minimized test case below: <FORM ACTION="EPollM.ProcessResponse" METHOD="POST" TARGET="_top"> <TABLE BORDER=4 CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0"> <TR> <TD> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA"><B>gender: <INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="fgender" VALUE="M"> male &nbsp;&nbsp;<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="fgender" VALUE="F"> female</B></FONT><BR> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0"> <TR> <TD> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA"><B>age:</B><BR> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="fage" SIZE=4> </TD> <TD> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA"><B>zip code:</B><BR> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="fzip5" SIZE=7> </TD> <TD> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA"><B>+ 4:</B><BR> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="fzip4" SIZE=4> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </form>

There are a couple of remaining problems. One is that the table border width is affecting the cells. The other problem is that the fonts are different than Nav4.5 on the form controls. Here is a slightly simpler test illustrating these. <html> <body> <FORM> <TABLE BORDER=6 CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0"> <TR> <TD> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA"> <B>gender: <INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="fgender" VALUE="M"> male &nbsp;&nbsp; <INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="fgender" VALUE="F"> female</B></FONT><BR> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0"> <TR> <TD> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA"><B>age:</B><BR> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="fage" SIZE=4></TD> <TD> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA"><B>zip code:</B><BR> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="fzip5" SIZE=7></TD> <TD> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA"><B>+ 4:</B><BR> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="fzip4" SIZE=4></TD></TR> </TABLE></TD></TR> </TABLE> </form> </body> </html>

Regarding my last comment, the table border problem has been fixed. The other problem of the font size/weight may just be a bug in Nav4.5 or the absence of some fonts. I'll give this to Peter and he can decide. Here is a very simple illustration of the font differences. <body> <font size=1 FACE="ARIAL, HELVETICA">gender<b>gender</b></font><br> </body>

The font size differences are due to Nav4.X font size rounding bug that I have fixed in NGLayout. These are expected.
