Button widths in IE
Today, I finally came accross a fix for the ridiculous widths of form buttons in IE. Jehiah Czebotar came up with this solution and it works perfectly. No more rediculously wide IE buttons.
Update
To make Jehiah's solution work in "standards" mode, don't forget to add a unit to the dummy width rule for IE:
<style>
td { border:1px solid red; }
.button {
margin:0;
padding:0 .25em;
width:auto;
overflow:visible;
}
</style>
<!--[if IE]>
<style>
.button { width:1px; }
</style>
<![endif]-->

thanks

Silly me, I didn’t catch the real root of the problem before; it was the unit all along! Anyway, more improvements have been made to the fix, thanks to a reply I got.
Thanks for pointing that out. Makes this fix all the more understandable.

I like the fact that you always reffer to the original source. Very humble as some people could fob it off as their own.
