Firefox 3 is getting "spinboxes" from textbox.type=number.

For port numbers, there isn't any practical use for spin numbers, you aren't going to modify the port number by ticking up and down w/ the arrows:

<textbox id="networkProxyHTTP_Port" type="number" max="65535" size="5"
preference="network.proxy.http_port" onsyncfrompreference="return gConnectionsDialog.readHTTPProxyPort();"/>

We should add: "hidespinbuttons=true" to all the port number fields.

Maybe it has some effect, such as minor adjustments for typing errors or new ports.
