    Default Search Button Positioning?

    My search button displays fine in Firefox, IE8 and Chrome but in most other browsers it displays like:



    Is there an easy fix for this?

    It looks OK in every browser I have except IE6 and IE7.

    You've installed the mod to allow IE6 and 7-specific stylesheets - now you need to create the sheets.

    If you use IE Web Developer to look at the site in Compatiblity Mode (IE7) you'll see that removing the float:left; from #navMainSearch input allows the button to move up - then you should be able to use some margin-top to put it where it belongs. You'd do that in IE6 and 7 stylesheets.

    Thanks Stevesh, removing the float: left; allowed it to move back into place, unfortunately its a little high for the search field now and any margin-top rule just pushes the search field down along with the button effectively keeping it the same distance apart...

    any ideas?
