form falls out of div in IE compatibility mode
Question
I have a from inside a div (with a border). This looks good on Firefox and IE 10 (not sure about older versions of IE). However, sometimes IE activates the compatibility mode and then the form (input box and submit button) fall out of the div. Is there some css tweak to prevent this?
My HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="box">
<h2 style="display:inline;">Some sample text</h2>
<form id="frm">
<input type="text" id="tb" />
<input type="submit" class="button" />
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
and my css
.box {
display:block;
height:40px;
magin-left:5px;
padding:5px 0 0 10px;
width:740px;
background:green;
border:1px solid black;
}
h2 {
margin:0 0 7px;
padding:0;
font:1.6em Arial;
letter-spacing: -1px
}
#tb {
width:225px
}
.button {
float:right;
width:93px;
margin-left:5px;
padding:2px 0
}
form {
float:right;
}
#frm {
margin-right:10px;
margin-top:2px;
width:330px;
}

Since your form is floated, try clearing it by putting overflow: auto; on a parent of the form, such as .box .
