Ok, here's another idea, maybe too whacky:
Instead of smacking styles into divs, what if we dynamically created a
CSS class style rule for each case? We already have some of this
mechanism in the measurement cache. At least for the various text
attributes we could do something like, accumulate all the text style
properties, build a CSS rule, assign it to a (generated) class name,
and add that class name to the div's class (you can have multiple
classes apply to a div, they are separated by spaces).
We'd still use individual styles for position/overflow/width/height/
clip, but for the styles that affect text, bundle them into a class.

In Firefox, asking for cssText gives you this

But in IE7 you get no font info
lzx> foo.sprite.__LzInputDiv.style.cssText
'OVERFLOW: scroll; WIDTH: 417px; CLIP: rect(auto auto auto auto);
HEIGHT:
117px'

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

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>
