WFM 1.3 Linux i686.
There is one Shockwave and one Java applet which show the pictures.
You should have Java and Shockwave installed and enabled.

I have sun java 1.4.1_01 shockwave 6. All java and shockwave parts works, but
login part of site, and other things in left row should have the same width as
pictures in the same row - try see page in windows mozilla and u'll see problem
in linux version.

Mozilla 1.3, Linux: i have thesame problem.
I see that everything is good if I change in DOM Inspector:
- "width" for those inputs and
- "width" for table which contains left column.
I make it smaller and it works only if I change both values

It looks fine to me.  Can you attach a screenshot to show what it's supposed to
look like?

Attachment: testcase

I see the bug on the URL if I increase the font size.  Locally it show up
without adjustment.

This testcase has a sample <input> from the page and a box show the 146 pixels
the page thinks the <input> should be.	It looks like Mozilla/Linux's Arial is
wider than whatever Mozilla/Windows grabs.

So is the bug confirmed?

Comment 10

[Andrew Schultz]

I don't know that there's anything that Mozilla is doing wrong here.  There's no
rule that Arial font on Linux has to be the same width as Verdana in Windows.

I guess the page ought to say <input 'style="width: NNNpx"' ...> if they really
want the <input> to be a certain width (size="23" is pretty ambiguous).

Agreed, if people want a fixed width, they should specify it as such. Resolving
INVALID.
