I noticed that TEXTAREA (! NOT input type=text) really varies with CSS in netscape vs MSIE. Both NS 4+ and MSIE 5 work well with all form elements, with the exception of TEXTAREA. However, NS refuses to allow me to alter the font SIZE or face, unless i specify the FORM element as a class. Weird. Take a look at the following in the 2 browsers...
Try first <FORM class="littleForm">
Then, just <FORM>
*********************
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<STYLE>
.LittleForm{font-family: verdana, courier new, courier, sans-serif; font-size:10px;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;background-color:#ffffff;}
</STYLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
look at this in NS and MSIE
<FORM class="littleForm">
<P.LittleForm>
<INPUT class="littleForm" TYPE="edit" value="Edit input" NAME="Edit"><BR>
<INPUT class="littleForm" TYPE="Text" value="Text input" NAME="Text"><BR>
<INPUT class="littleForm" TYPE="password" value="Password input" NAME="Password" SIZE=13><BR>
<INPUT class="littleForm" style="background-color:#cccccc;" TYPE="button" NAME="Button" VALUE="Button needs to have the BG as grey (NS can't do the color), but is otherwise OK"><BR>
<TEXTAREA class="littleForm" NAME="Textarea" ROWS=6 COLS=15 WRAP=VIRTUAL>TEXTAREA: this is HUGE in NS</TEXTAREA><BR>
</FORM>
</BODY>
