This problem has been bugging me for a while on the what-next.com/beta/ page the Newsletter (top/right) form (and others on the site looks twice as long in Netscape than in IE. Sometimes I seem to fix the problem, but then it messes up again. Can anyone pinpoint the problem please (I know the're will be a slight difference in size but this is ridiculous! Smiling )...

I tried adding type="text" to the input tag and it seems to be working. See:

If it does work, here is the modified tag:

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="address" VALUE="put your email here" SIZE="19">
