Bug in the design view TextBox control

[dom]

Hi

I have a custom control based on the TextBox webcontrol. If I set the width
property to 50% then the 'outercontrol' is 50% but the drawn texbox is 50%
of the 'outercontrol'. Standard Textbox behavies the same way. Is there a
way to avoid this problem?

PS: if style attribute width is set then everything looks fine.

TIA dom
