Forms usually do different things in different browsers, did you check another browser?

The only thing I can think of is the font size would change the size of it.

A link to the page or a test page would help a lot so we can see what's happening and the coding.

Hi,

Try adding this to your <FORM> style.

margin:0px;

Stoopid IE keeps adding white space for the form object.

But when you set <FORM ... style=`margin:5px 0px 0px 5px`..>, it will affect the other menu items in FireFox or Mozilla.

Opera 7.51 Build 3798 (win32) has same issue when margin-top > 0px; it seems that the rest menu items will inherit the top property.

Did you try putting margin in global style? Oops sorry, you have form with other menu items. How about 0 without px?

Now I'm confused, you don't want margin-top. margin:5px 0 0 5px;
I remember some confusion about browsers using px or not.
