Here is a screen shot of the problem I am having in Firefox:

In the dropdownlists the text is covered by the down arrow, this seems to be the standard rendering of a asp:dropdownlist for firefox?

How do you move the arrow over?

URL? It's hard to figure out how to fix it without seeing the actual code.

.fulldate
{
padding: 0em 0em 0em 0em;
}

I've tried adjusting the padding and only the box widens but the arrow stays put ??

Any CSS on the page, either up top or in an external file?

I got into a conversation with davidcdalton and he noticed I was using

*
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}

And when I put a class on the select it didn't help, until I did this:

.fulldate option
{
padding-right: .6em;
}

All seems good now??

I was wondering if it might be something like that. Congrats on figuring it out!
