The following example gives me two differently sized input fields on
Netscape 4.78 (/Win):
--------------------------------------------------------------------
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
input {
	font-family: Courier, monospace;
	}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="text" size="10" value="testing">
</form>
<form>
<input type="text" size="10" value="testing" style="font-family: Verdana,
sans-serif;">
</form>
</body>
</html>
--------------------------------------------------------------------
