[thelist] Internet Explorer: Text Fields

[aardvark]

can you post a sample somewhere?

as a reference, if you add a comment to an article on evolt.org, all 
those <textareas> have an embedded style of width:100%... as do 
the code-displaying <textarea>s in articles... and i haven't heard of 
this before from anyone viewing the evolt.org site...
