Build ID: 2001-11-09-03, All OSs.
Summary: Search textfield is cropped.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Look at the textfield in the search form on http://home.netscape.com
Expected Results:
1. Textfield is cropped (this was changed when Rod Spears checked in some
textfield stuff, but I think Netscape.com is using incorrect code).
Actual Results:
Textfield should be much longer than they are.
This affects the Search field, the Weather field and the Stock Quote field.

Are any of these sufficiently simmilar to warrant
consolidation via duplication or dependancy change?

This is operating the way they designed it.

A pulldown search provider that's bigger than the search textfield looks wonky,
but that's neither your call nor mine.

I'm curious with whom you spoke. I don't think this is by design especially
since in IE, Nav 4.x, and Trunk builds for Linux and Mac the search fields
display look correct. You'd think they'd want it to render the same
consistently, on each platform.
I can speak with the Homepage folks.

I didn't speak with anyone. I just looked at the code:
if (navigator.appName=="Netscape" && platform.indexOf('Win')==0)
{ var srchsz=10; var weatsz=5; var stoksz=5; }
else if (((navigator.appName=="Netscape") && (platform.indexOf('Mac')==0))
&& (parseInt(navigator.appVersion)<5))
{ var srchsz=20; var weatsz=8; var stoksz=8; }
else if (((navigator.appName=="Netscape") && (platform.indexOf('Mac')==0))
&& (parseInt(navigator.appVersion)>4))
{ var srchsz=12; var weatsz=5; var stoksz=5; }
else if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft")!=-1 &&
platform.indexOf('Mac')==0)
{ var srchsz=16; var weatsz=5; var stoksz=5; }
else if (navigator.appName=="Netscape" && platform.indexOf('Win')==-1 &&
platform.indexOf('Mac')!=0)
{ var srchsz=19; var weatsz=8; var stoksz=8; }
else
{ var srchsz=21; var weatsz=9; var stoksz=9; }
They obviously distinguish Gecko on a Mac, so the their choice of search field
size for Gecko == the search field size for Navigator 4 seems intentional to me.
Feel free to bring the issue up with whomever you wish.

Rafael - nope, you guys didn't fix Mac OS X's CSS (or, the sniffing that gives
the OS X client the file).
