buildID: 20010724-18-0.9.2 1. open the 2 testcases attached below. "Test case 1" has a transitional doctype (standards mode) and the "Testcase 2" has no-doctype (quirks mode) 2. in both these testcases, the input text form-control has size="15" 3. input "123456789012345" in the form-control actual: Testcase 1:- only "13" characters are visible at one time (this is not the desired result. Testcase 2:- all the "15" characters are visible at one time (this is the desired result) expected: the visible number of characters input in the form-control input-text in standards mode (with DOCTYPE) should also be equal to the value of the size attribute.
This is a duplicate of bug 44656. we use fixed-width font in quirks mode and the document font in strict mode. Style the controls with a fixed-width font if you really care about the sizing being that precise.... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 44656 ***
