Hi,

I'm working on a cross browser solution that involves setting the border width of a input type="text" element to 0px.

It works fine on most browsers but doesnt seem to take effect on safari. I've read on a few sites that this mightn't be possible to do on safari but i dont believe that for one minute.

Anyone accomplished this task in the past??

Any help is greatly appreciated,

foz
 
No, unfortunately, AFAIK there is no way of styling the input boxes in Safari. You could try and cheat and put certain objects over the borders but I personally don't think it is worth it.

Believe it - it's true.

I tested Safari v1.3 (the latested Safari version) using the following HTML and found that nothing was altered by adding the style:

Code:
<form name="myForm" action="?" method="get">
<input style="border:none;" name="wibble" type="text" />
</form>

I was using an XHTML doctype.

Cheers
