input boxes too small

Hi all,

  If you have ever noticed the bug where some html input boxes appear
too small, in the sense that they are not tall enough for the height
of the text they contain, this information may be of interest to you.
It is a Xulrunner bug, not a Conkeror bug, and it appears to be fixed
in Xulrunner 1.9.1.  So if you are already running 1.9.1, disregard.
Otherwise, here is a work-around:

http://conkeror.org/UpstreamBugs#htmlinputboxestoosmall

  Would appreciate confirmation that the work-around works.

i noticed that bug at sites like americanexpress.com.  i just tried
re-installing conkeror with xulrunner-bin v. 1.9.1.2 on my mac os x,
but the bug is still there.  adding the suggested code to my rc file,
the bug is fixed.

This issue was reported by me on bugs.conkeror.org - #174
http://bugs.conkeror.org/issue174
On 2009-08-12.06:57:38 I marked it as resolved with the indication
that 1.9.1 upgrade works. So I can confirm it.

With 1.9.1.2 (debian) the bug (or what I think
is the bug) is still there. For example:

Okay, so it is the same issue.  I wasn't quite sure.  Thanks.

  Interesting.  So apparently 1.9.1 partially fixes the problem, but
not completely.  For example, the youtube search results page showed
the bug in 1.9.0.x, but it works fine in 1.9.1.

  The workaround I posted has the disadvantage that it may cause
improper sizing of fields that are *supposed* to be rendered in quirks
mode.  This limitation could be gotten around by using @-moz-document
declarations, but then you have to manually enter in every site that
the css applies to.  The code would be like this:

register_user_stylesheet(
    "data:text/css," +
        escape(
            "@namespace url(\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\");\n"+
            "@-moz-document url-prefix(http://www.naxosmusiclibrary.com/)\n"+
            "{\n"+
            "input:not([type=\"image\"]) {\n"+
            "  -moz-box-sizing: content-box !important;\n"+
            "}}"));//*/

  You can have a list of url-prefix, url, and domain forms, separated
by commas.  For details, see

i'd like to point out that although the fix u suggested fixes the box
and font size problem on some site, it creates another for the
google-reader page mode: keyboard shortcuts doesn't work immediately
on http://reader.google.com.  i have to hit escape (unfocus) before
the keyboard shortcuts resumes.  if i remove your fix and restart
conkeror, the keyboard shortcuts work immediately.

Hi all,

  I updated the source-code snippet to also include html:textarea
elements.  This affects facebook.com, in the "Write a comment.."
fields.  For updated code, go to:
