Why not include a matching style for textboxes? Those styled inputs are going to look pretty jarring next to native textboxes and creating matching styles for them is enough work for me that I wouldn't do it.

Overall they look nice, but with the incomplete control set and the gotchas listed (doesn't automatically handle dynamic changes and no IE6 support) it has a long way to go.

Adds a bit of irony to the project's name.

Ojay.Forms handles dynamic changes and supports IE6. You have to write your own styling, though, but generally one would have to do that with Uniform anyway.

On a quick test, drop down boxes don't work on Chrome 4: when I click on the scroll bar it closes down. I've seen this bug somewhere else two years ago and there was some workaround but still...

Anyway, it's a nice idea!

Yes, we need to do some work to make things properly compatible with Chrome. Hopefully I'll have some spare time in the next couple of weeks to do that.

Indeed - in addition to type="text", textarea and button would be nice as well.
