CSS: Input fields with submit buttons styling

I am currently working with an input field that will do search for my page. But I am undergoing some css styling issues. I have placed inside the input field the submit button which is an image of a magnifying glass. the problem is that the button does not stay in its place through cross browsers. It looks ok in firefox but others browsers it looks bad.

How can i get the submit button to stay inside the input field at all times? EXAMPLE

thank you!

Use this much better approach I came across. It works well and tested with web developer tools. Cheers@!!!

HTML

<div id="header">
    <form id="search">
        <input id="searchField" type="text" />
        <input id="searchSubmit" type="submit" value="" />
    </form>
</div>

CSS

#search{
    float: right;
    margin-right: 30px;
    margin-top: 35px;
}


#searchField{
    border: 1px solid #FFEDE8;
    float: left;
    height: 20px;
    padding-right: 25px;
    width: 140px;}


#searchSubmit{
    background: url("http://webprolearner2346.zxq.net/css-test2/images/mag-glass.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    border: medium none;
    cursor: pointer;
    height: 20px;
    margin-left: -22px;
    margin-top: 5px;
    width: 20px;
}
