the form, but it does ?!), you could try something like
#main fieldset {position:relative; border: none; }

Firefox has this to say about the way it styles forms by default. If
you can override these then it may help..
These default browser styles are found in res/*.css of your firefox install dir.

Yes I have had this problem too.
I end up trying to ignore the inconcistency and just live with it.
What does look cool is if you put a padding (0.2em) or something small

Give it a border, the same colour as the fieldset, then a new background
colour.
add cursor: pointer, and with
