form that works correctly (font tags removed)
392 bytes, text/html
Details 
When FONT surrounds FORM, followed by SCRIPT, and focus is called, Mozilla puts
the cursor in whitespace.  When typing begins, the cursor positions itself
correctly, but the whitespace remains.  The problem disappears when FONT is
removed or closed before SCRIPT.

Confirmed. I see this on build 2001040904 WinNT. After you load the testcase, 
you can't click into the field to position the cursor correctly. You have to 
start typing to get the cursor to jump to the field.

Note that it isn't a JavaScript problem. Disable JavaScript and try to click in 
the field. You'll see the same misplaced cursor. It seems to occur anytime font 
surrounds an input element. This problem is gaining duplicates, such as bug 
75368 and bug 75080.
