Rudy,

	It's actually an HTML thing, and a browser thing as it turns out.
Since the Hn element is a block element, it reserves space across the entire
width of the page. In IE, when an Hn element is wrapped in an anchor, the
hotspot extends the width of the page. Communicator 4.7, however, renders
the link only for the width of the text. The Communicator rendering
certainly seems more sensible, but I'm not sure that the HTML spec actually
dictates which, if either, is correct.
