Is there any way a developer could achieve the results of all other browsers in webkit?

The following code works in IE6/Firefox/Opera, but not in any webkit browser:

label { position:absolute; top:50px; left:25px; }
input { border:1px solid black; height:100px; padding:70px 25px 10px; width:300px; }
...
<label for="sometext">The text:</label>
<input type="text" id="sometext" placeholder="Enter text here"/>
