I'm trying to create edit fields of the same width, so this is what I tried...

<table>
<tr>
<td>Field 1:</td>
<td><input style=&quot;WIDTH: 250px&quot;></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Field 2:</td>
<td><select size=&quot;1&quot; name=&quot;D1&quot; style=&quot;WIDTH: 250px&quot;></select></td>
</tr>
</table>

Problem is that Netscape 4.xx refuses to display these properly, works fine in IE, Mozilla M18 and Netscape 6 though.

I read somewhere that there's a workaround with the <div> and <layer> tags, but I don't remember where exactly...

Anyone know a workaround? Thanks...

 
Netscape 4.xx interprets the size differently, without a real solution to this...unless you want to use a browser sniffer to adjust. I feel you should work with smaller text fields.
