Why does Firefox show a little triangle in the form field ?

I setup a form and my client wants rounded corners and a background-image for the fields. It looks well in IE, but with Firefox i get a little white triangle in the left bottom corner of the fields. I looked at all the CSS for the field for conflicting settings, but could not find any. Can you help me with this ?

It looks that there is some problem with the CSS code for the bottom of those fields and that the bottom right corner is shown in that position.

Maybe you can post a minimized code example that shows this issue.

You can also try to check for CSS issues in the Inspector.

That is probably the resize icon.

Thanks for your reply, but it did not solve the problem. I included a screenprint so you can see the effect. Maybe you know now what the ptoblem (and solution) is ?
