Question

I have an HTML form with a bunch of input fields (of type text and select). I am floating them such that there are two on each row. In all browsers (including IE7), everything works okay, but for some reason in IE8, whenever I click inside any of the fields or their labels, that field or a surrounding one vertically moves up or down. The position then returns to normal once I click away from the box, though then another nearby box might move. Also, not all of the textbox fields have this issue, and clicking the same textbox doesn’t always cause this issue. Any ideas?

Answer 1

I had the exact same problem, and to fix it, I set

display:block

On the element that was jumping around and that fixed it. Hope that helps.
