I guess we need another jerkXXXXquirk for IE and copy over the individual styles, one at a time. Alternatively, we could maintain a shadow copy of the div-specific style (as it is built/adjusted by the various LZX properties) and try just jamming that in.

This is bordering on my comment to Raju here: (http://jira.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-8552 ) that we should consider having the Kernel API be more CSS-like and map from LZX to CSS when calling into the kernel. In runtimes that support CSS, we can have a direct implementation, in other runtimes, we have to emulate CSS.

That apparently does not work in IE7 for some reason...

I don't follow.  setMultiline copies _all_ of the div styles over:

      lz.embed.__setAttr(newdiv, 'style', olddiv.style.cssText);

(in addition to the scroll position). So, something else is going wrong...

Yes, I think it needs to copy the necessary fontstyles over. Right now
LzInputTextSprite#setMultiline() only preserves the text contents,
scrollLeft and scrollTop. The necessary styles should be preserved in:
LzInputTextSprite.prototype.__fontStyle = 'normal';
LzInputTextSprite.prototype.__fontWeight = 'normal';
LzInputTextSprite.prototype.__fontSize = '11px';
LzInputTextSprite.prototype.__fontFamily = 'Verdana,Vera,sans- serif';

I'd avoid copying the entire CSS style - that's pretty risky.

I'm trying to figure out why the font is changing back to the default
font when an input field
is set to multiline in IE7/DHTML.
The code in LzInputTextSprite.setMultiline does create a new div, with
_createInputDiv, does that need to
copy the font styles over?
<canvas>
<inputtext id="foo" width="400" x="14" name="foo"  font="monospace"
fontsize="11" fontstyle="plain"
          multiline="false"
          text="${canvas.runtime}"
          bgcolor="#ccffcc"
          onclick="   setAttribute('multiline', true);
this.setAttribute('height', 100); "/>
</canvas>
