Drop down rendering difference between chrome and firefox

[martintaal]

Hi,
We generate a yes/no select and notice a difference between chrome and firefox.
The "Yes/No" selects in Google Chrome shows a space between the 'input' (since the 'input' is not editable, it is a html <div>) and the drop down arrow. This doesn't happen neither in IE nor FF.

Watching the generated code, by a strange reason, in Google Chrome, Smartclient adds a extra <div> containing a <textarea>. This <div> with a <textarea> is not present in FF, and if you remove it via Google Chrome developer tool, you see that the visualization gets fixed and looks like IE and FF

What could be the reason for this, or how can we prevent this?

Thanks!

The TextArea is there to provide a focusable element since WebKit only considers certain elements to be focusable by default. However it should not be creating a visual difference, and this might be due to some skinning in your applicaiton.

You forgot to mention your version - please let us know if this can be reproduced in an 8.0 nightly (smartclient.com/builds) in a standard sample.

Yes, it was something with styling (a padding) which only showed up in Chrome.

Thanks
