I answered this before but the mail didn't reach the list: there is no CSS
solution. IE 5.5 Win *does* allow you to set paddings and borders for inline
elements, and IE5Mac also does allow it. But IE 4 and 5.0 Win don't, simple
as that.
Be warned, BTW, that when you set a border for an inline element, Netscape 4
assumes you want to make it a block level element.

Yes, you need to do that anyway.
