[SOLVED] Impossible to set exact width of input field?


Recommended Posts

Trying to make the width of a form text input field exactly match the width of a table cell. Somehow Dreamweaver displays that the cell is forced to be 2 px wider. No matter what I try this doesn't disappear. Is this impossible?

 

My test code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
table td {padding:0px;margin:0px;}
input {width:120px; border-width:0px; margin:0px; padding:0px;}
</style>

</head>

<body>

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="120px"><input type="text" name="textfield" id="textfield"/></td>
    <td width="120px"> </td>
    <td width="120px"> </td>
  </tr>
  
</table>
</body>
</html>
