'size="3px"' is not possible; you probably mean 'size="3"' or

And type="text" is redundant as it is the default.

You're confusing war tactics with the actual situation on the
battlefield.

I don't think so.

Don't use <input> when you mean <input type="text">.

I don't know *any* user agent at all that does not display a text input
control if the `type' attribute for the `input' element is missing, i.e.
contradicts the Specification here. Do you?
