Does Ctrl - solve the problem? Is it a problem or just a point to be noted (as it may mean something lurking)?

here the same site on winxp sp2 FF306

check the input boxes. On Linux amd64 they break the template. On Linux amd64 Opera the site looks fine as on windows.

Hi Monkey, why do you set this incomplete=? What more than a proper bugreport and screenshots do you need? Well here is a link http://templates.joomlapolis.com/demo/mycommunity/j15/ . Just check it out yourself. The site looks different with other browsers and FF on Windows (the widths of the search and login/password input boxes).

The problem still exists.

FF 3.5.7
