Inputfield with width 100% "reaches" into padding

i have a Tablecell with an Inputfield in it. The Inputfield should fill up the Tablecell but not reach into its padding. What i have looks like this (with firebug):

I want the inputfield to be kept inside the blue area and not raching into the purple one.

And: Of course i read all the questions here on this topic first. I read all of it and i could not find any answer which actually solved that.

It should work in all moder开发者_如何转开发n browsers (ie7 as well);

I made a minimal live Example with jsfiddle where i tried all the solutions in the other questions but i just could not get this to work. a) Is there a working solution for this? and b) Is there even a nice and non-workaroundish solution for this?

Why is this a problem in all browsers? I think this is a wrong specification in CSS. Because if i say "100%" of course i want the element to fit "100%" of the CONTENT Area. What is the use case for letting it flow into paddings and margins?

Well, here you go..

I'm using the exact same method as this answer.

See: http://jsfiddle.net/AKUsB/

CSS:

.inputContainer {
    background: #fff;
    padding: 3px 3px;
    border: 1px solid #a9a9a9
}
.inputContainer input {
    width: 100%;
    margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 0;
    display: block
}

HTML:

<div class="inputContainer">
    <input type="text" name="company" id="company" value="" class="formInputTextField" style="width: 100%;" />
</div>

The problem here is with the box model, when you say width: 100% it applies a pixel value based on what's available (which you can see under the "computed styles" option of a web inspector). However, padding is then added on to that width, so a padding of 5px would compute to a total width of 100% + 10px (5 for each side).

To fix this problem, you need to remove your padding, or incorporate it into your width value. For example:

input { width: 100%; padding: 0; }

Or

input { width: 90%; padding: 0 5%; } /* width totals 100% */

Most form elements, by default, inherit some amount of padding; so even if you're not specifically applying padding to the input, it's still on there because the browser defaults it to have padding.

I think you should try to use

box-sizing: border-box
