and here are the look on Chrome & Safari, it has strange border around the input element

Chrome

Safari

Here is my html & css code

<input type="search" id="generic_search" onkeypress="return runScript(event)" /> <input type="button" id="generic_search_button" /> 

the border:0 has been applied to all elements

#generic_search {     font-size: 14px;     width: 250px;     height: 25px;     float: left;     padding-left: 5px;     padding-right: 5px;     margin-top: 7px; } #generic_search_button {     float: left;     width: 25px;     height: 25px;     margin-top: 7px;     cursor: pointer;     background-color: White;     background-image: url(/Images/search.png);     background-repeat: no-repeat;     background-position: center center; } 

How to remove that border?

Answer 1

border: 0 should be enough, but if it isn't, perhaps the button's browser-default styling in interfering. Have you tried setting appearance to none (e.g. -webkit-appearance: none)

Answer 2

border-width:0px; border:none; 

I have used this, and in most of the browsers (Chrome, Safari, FF, IE, etc), it worked fine for me 🙂
