Then I have two possible solutions to what I think the problem may be...

One, have the field_setup() function bound to the window load as such:

$(window).bind(load,function(){field_setup()});

or define the width in the css of that field by its ID

If that doesn't work then I'll need to find a different problem to solve :P
