That's what I wrote yesterday :-)

Question: do you want fix exactly for <input> filed, or work-around for your 
particular solution?
Or even better solution than yours? :-))

Check attached HTML example, I did several modifications.
First, note that 'name' is depreciated, you should use 'id' instead.
I replaced 'name' with 'id' and used getElementById DOM method to get access 
to element (recommended usage, instead of NN4-like, or MS IE4-like 
"collections")

I also replaced <input> with <div>, and than applied element.innerHTML method 
to change content (you can use something more simple, but innerHTML is pretty 
well known and Konqueror supports it)

Modified code in question is:

  <td    align=right class="ee103">
	<div id="p1B5" 
	style='border: 0px solid #000000;width:75pt;height:14pt' class="ee103" >
	</div>
  </td>

After this redesign:  everything works as expected. :-)
(and there is no border around last element)

BTW:   I would recommend you do not use legacy elements at all.
CSS (<div>) methods are much, much better for the purpose of presentations, 
comparing to other elements (button, input fields, etc.)
Instead of creating button and "theming" it later, you can use <div> from the 
beginning and modify it via CSS.
