Chrome shrinks absolute form on relative bg, Firefox & Mamp do not ?
Greetings DW experts, thanks for looking at this post. I have a carousel background of images positioned 'relative'; then I have a form on top positioned 'absolute'. I was moving along fine with Mamp and Firefox, then I looked at it in Chrome. The form shrinks smaller than the 395px width I gave it. I thought it was because I did not put the form in any kind of container because doing so puts margins on the background images. So, I put the form in a container and came up with the same results in Chrome. I took the container off. I'm confused, please help. screen shots, html file and live link are below. thanks for your support....jw ps. it also shrinks on my iphone. i hope it something real simple
