the text field and button line up fine on opera , but i can never get them the smae height in I.E.
does anyone have a good solution to make them size correctly across browsers?

also, does anyone have a work around for the
I.E-wont-do-hover-on-anything-but-a-href problem that could be applied to submit buttons?
thanks

What have you tried so far?

a work around for the IE-wont-do-hover-on-anything-but-a-href problem

onmouseover="this.className='foobar'" onmouseout="this.className='barbaz'"

thanks dr doc. ill give the mouseovers a try.

ive really not tried anything out of the ordinar y - just tweaking the padding font sizes etc, but just cannot seem to get it right.

ive altered the deign slightly so its not so noticable now, i can live withy a couple of pixels in I.E. (who uses that anyway:)?)

Aah... Playing with padding would indeed make it hard :)
Just setting a height, and let the browser figure out the padding, works a lot better.
