OK ... what a pain in the butt!

How does one deal with the different physical size rendered for textboxes by 
Netscape and IE? The physical size for a textbox with a "size" attribute of 
20 in Netscape is huge compared to IE. What gives?

I'm working around this by using a "size" attribute that is Netscape 
physically sized and also including a "style" parameter  overriding the 
"size" in IE with precise sizing info. Appears to work for IE 5 and Netscape 
4.6 ... but will it work in all browsers?

<input type="text" size="10" style="width:120px heigth:22px" name="foo">

Is there some other easier way of dealing with this?

Thanks for any info,
Allison McMearty
