Shows the difference and a sample code
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:7.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0
Build ID: 20110816154714
Steps to reproduce:
Viewing a simple form
Actual results:
With Firefox 7 (and 8, Trunk, ...) I see <input>s rendered different from previous versions of Firefox. Applying CSS font style the size of the input's differs.
That's an example code (bad written without css), you can test with it. I attach capture with Firefox 3.6 render (the same render with 4, 5 and 6) and FF 7.0.
<html>
<head>
<style>
input, select {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table width="750" align="center" border="1">
<tr>
<td class="td_fosc">Input1</td>
<td class="td_clar" colspan="3">
<select><option>TEST</option></select>
</td>
<td class="td_fosc">Input1</td>
<td class="td_clar" colspan="3"><input size="41" value="TEST"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="td_fosc">Input2</td>
<td class="td_clar"><input size="30" value="Test"></td>
<td class="td_fosc">Input3</td>
<td class="td_clar"><input size="10"></td>
<td class="td_fosc">Input2</td>
<td class="td_clar"><input size="17"></td>
<td class="td_fosc">Input3</td>
<td class="td_clar"><input size="9"></td>
</tr>
</table>
<br>
<table width="750" align="center" border="1">
<tr>
<td class="td_fosc">750 GOOD</td>
<td class="td_fosc"><input value="TEST"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Expected results:
Is it a bug?

All look similar to the upper example in the screendump of attachment 555363 [details]:

Are you able to reproduce the issue while running Firefox in Safe Mode?
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode
You are true! I restarted with Safe Mode and now it's looking good. With 7.0 and nightly.
But I can't understand what's causing the problem. Now I tested with a nightly build with a totally new profile (no prefs, no addons) and I see the bad render. But if I restart with safe mode I see the good render. ?¿?¿?¿
The same happens with 7.0 Beta, my normal installation. With all addons disabled I see the bad render, and restarting with safe mode the good render.
Until updating to 7.0 I never have seen the bad render, and with a 3.6 Portable all is working fine. Maybe some new hardware feature of Firefox 7+ ???

This behavior is introduced with Bug 661471.
If you do not need the behavior, set gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.force_gdi_classic_for_families to ""

INVALID per Comment 3.
Status: UNCONFIRMED → RESOLVED

Resolution: --- → INVALID
I just ran into that problem. Finished a website with few input text in FF 6.0. After automatic update to FF7 - the input text sizes where broken - they are wider than in FF6 and other browsers. I didnt set any width or other params trough the css - just clean code: <input type="text" value="e-mail address" size="20" /> - and it renders badly.

Edit: I just tested two params throught CSS: when the input text has: font-size:11px; - then it renders badly, but when it has 12px - then it renders good - so this issue is font related.
