WinMerge

Finally, I got the diff tool which met my need. It can compare two files side by side. For those lines with difference, it can highlight the word difference and lists top/bottom panels.

Previously, I downloaded a copy of WinMerge from www.download.com. That was so out-of-date.

diff

Still look for a good diff GUI. Currently, I have WinDiff, WinMerge, and ExamDiff Pro.

Generally, WinDiff can meet my requirement when comparing two files, but not directories. I can't believe why MS can't get this simple thing right. All files' name are lowercase listed when two directories are compared. When copying the different files, all files are lowercase.

I wish WinMerge shows line number in the gutter. The default font should be fixed size.

ExmaDiff Pro looks like is powerful, but not free.

Set style 100% width in text field

In HTML,
<input name="subject" value="aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" style="width: 100%;" type="text">, IE really mess up the layout due to the very long value.

I switch to <textarea name="subject" style="overflow: hidden; width: 100%; height: 1.5em;"></textarea> and believe this is better UI. But, I need to strip out line break and, maybe, implement row auto expanding -- just like yahoo e-mail composer's TO field.

This solution is good for me, since I don't have size limition for subject field.
