Hi,

I'm a software developer, lots of congratulations on Mozilla!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am writing to you because I have this problem for a very simple web page. I am going to use "?" instead of "<" so you can see the code in a browser.

?!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN"

?html>


   ?head>
      ?link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="main.css" />
   ?/head>
   
   ?body>
     ?div id="global">

      ?form id="formForCreatingNewUser" class="formAlign">

          
          ?label id="IntegerTestLabel">Integer Test</label>?input type="text" id="IntegerTest" />?br />
          ?label id="PozitiveIntegerTestLabel">Pozitive Integer Test</label>?input type="text" id="PozitiveIntegerTest" />?br />
          ?label id="DoubleTestLabel">Double Test</label>?input type="text" id="DoubleTest" /><br />
          ?label id="receiveEmailNotificationsLabel">Receive e-mail notifications about new products </label>?input type="checkbox" id="receiveEmailNotifications" />
          ?br />
          ?label id="PozitiveDoubleTestLabel">Pozitive Double Test</label>?input type="text" id="PozitiveDoubleTest" />?br />
          
      ?/form>

     ?/div>

  ?/body>
?/html>

Basically, it is a form with several fields, each field preceded by a label.
The css is : 
form.formAlign label {
    float: left;
    min-width: 14em;
    text-align: left;
}

After the line containning the checkbox, the last line of the form is dislayed very much to the right, as if it is supposed to start beneath the checkbox. This doesn't happen with IE, if u can please check the code, it is trivial

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.write the code I provided in the "Details section"
2.replace the "?" characters with a "<" character
3.open the html file with mozilla



I'm creating a Javascript opensource and I am under time pressure to publish it. If I am missing something regarding the problem I am reporting to you or if it is a bub, please let me know.

Attachment: Reduced case/Attachment vs inline

Reduced HTML attachment showing the indentation appears incorrect. Changing the input type on line 14 from checkbox to text makes the indent correct.
