web forms textbox sizing issues in Firefox

I've created a webform and I'm using a couple textboxes. When I browse the
form in IE, the textboxes are sized the way I laid them out in my IDE...one
being distinctly larger than the other. When I browse the form in Firefox,
the textboxes are resized so they are both the same size.

How can this be fixed, and how do I code/layout my ASP.net 1.1 form to
minimize things like this from happening?

REad the info at this link:

ASP.NET is detecting FireFox as an HTML 3.2 compliant browser and rendering
the wrong HTML.
