Is there a simple way to make html textarea and input type text equally wide?

Question

Is there a simple way of getting a HTML textarea and an input type=\"text\" to render with (approximately) equal width (in pixels), that works in different browsers?

A C

Answer 1

Just a note - the width is always influenced by something happening on the client side - PHP can't effect those sorts of things.

Setting a common class on the elements and setting a width in CSS is your cleanest bet.
