The login box on the upper right-hand side of the page is not rendered correctly
(in fact, once you have logged in, a lot of the BA web site is not rendered
correctly).

The input boxes for the username and the password are tiny (and the text is
almost invisible when you type it in) and the box itself overlaps the stuff
below it.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.britishairways.com/travel/home/public/en_us

Actual Results:  
The page rendered incorrectly

Expected Results:  
Rendered correctly

Confirming bug.  For Mac, the server sends us "mac_ie.css".  For Linux, I get
"pc_ie.css".  The "velogin" class (which is specified in the upper right login
textareas) specifies "height:10px;"; this, of course, is not present in the
"pc_ie.css" file, so it looks fine on Linux and presumably Windows.  I saved the
page and removed the height line and the text area displayed correctly.
