Your inline style is not Valid: CSS lengths different from 0 have to have a 
unit; here probably “px”: “25px” and “23px”.

Also, formatting input[type="button"] elements this way is unreliable; use 
button[type="button"] elements instead.

It is not surprising that code that is not standards-compliant and is error-
prone stops working after a browser update.

HTML is on-topic in comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html.
CSS is on-topic in comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets.
This is comp.lang.javascript.
