Using Firefox Quantum 60.5.1esr (64-bit) in OpenSuse 15.0

This code

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>

<body>
<p>


<label for='product_quantity'>Quantity:</label>
<input id='product_quantity' name='product[quantity]' size='50' type='text' value='9999999999999999999999999'>


<br>

</p>

</body>
</html>

Produces a big text box in Opera or Chome, filled with a lot o 9s, but in Firefox and Seamonkey it produces a little text box, so little I can't see any number.

The same version of firefox in other computer with Opensuse 42.3 works fine (show the big text box).

why?

regards

    Fixed width is normally frowned on these days anyway because it does not foster responsive design. You should probably give input a % based width anyway via CSS or a style tag so that it can adjust to it's container. – Nosajimiki Mar 02 '19 at 01:02

  • Note that you are in "quirks mode" and using a doctype no one should be using since 1999 at least. – Rob Mar 02 '19 at 14:36

Give the width in %. It may help you.This elements are browser specific and different browser respond differently to all this elements and attributes. You can go through w3schools document for it. Here it is

  • [Mozilla Developer Network](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input) (MDN) is a far more reliable resource than W3Fools. (*w3schools is not related to the w3c group who look after the internet standards*) – Martin Mar 02 '19 at 12:38
  • Yes i truely agree you may refer both. – Khushal Agarwal Mar 02 '19 at 12:46
