looks fine in IE on PC's, but IE (the same version, no less) on Macs have the text field too long, and it pushes the right side of the globe over to the right. In addition, some versions of Netscape show it correctly, and some versions have the same problem. Can someone PLEASE tell me what I can change about this table to get this thing to show up right in all browsers? Is it the text box length attribute? Do some browsers not support that?

I would be grateful for ANY help.

I looked at it in Netscape where I have my font size set at 12 (which is NN default)- it was all messed up as you describe. When I changed font size to 10 everything looked fine.

IE apparantly counts spaces for size 10 fonts in a text box no matter what you specify in the browser cos when I made my default size huge there it all stayed put.

So, a solution? Tricky. You could make the text box less wide, which would allow for those who never change their NN default size - probably the majority of users. It would however ruin the look of it as the box would be floating in the middle in IE.

Macs I know nothing of.

But another problem will always be those who for reasons of preference or need use a very large font - say 14 or 16. I don't think you can allow for this too easily. And the truth, however palatable, is that these people are probably accustomed to seeing messed up pages.
