One thing I discovered when testing with Netscape and FireFox was that setting
the width property of textboxes causes problems with those two controls, but if
you set the "width" of text boxes with the Columns property they will display
correctly in NS and FF.

There's a catch though. Now they won't display quite right in relation to other
controls in IE, but it's a small amount that most folks won't notice.
