This doesn't look good in Netscape

i just installed Netscape 7.02 .
Is it normal that i had to login (= are cookies browserspecific ?)
Is it normal that this textfield is only 1/3 of the width it is in IE6?

Anyone else browsing this in Netscape and IE

Yes cookies are browser specific.

And the size determined by "size" and "cols" attributes (in <input/> and <textarea/> respectively) varies a lot between browsers. CSS can sort that out, but .. well ... the forum does have one or two, er, coding anomolies about it

I use Phoenix (moz1.3b) almost exclusively now; at first the narrow textarea bothered me, but you get used to it. It's a small thing compared with using a browser that supports string-matching attribute selectors

I never knew cookies were browserspecific. (Never use them).
I might as well drink to that
