Hello,

I was wondering if thier is a way to control how form elements can be rendered exactly the same on Windows and Mac browsers.

It seems as though form elements are slightly bigger on the Mac then the PC even when using a style sheet to control them.

The problem I am having is the form elements are pushing apart the table when viewed on the Mac.

If you goto:

It looks great on the PC, but is pushed apart a bit on the Mac.

If anyone has any information that would be great.

With the exception of NS6 and Mozilla browsers use the form element object that are a part of the client operating system. No way around that.

Thanks to everyone for their feedback. I am changing the way I am doing the navigation.
