The problem is best described as follows. The site in question has a four word Heading as a text field, is contained in a div tag, and I tried using br tags to control the display of the words such that the layout would follow a set pattern. ie: line 1 = 1word, line 2 = next two words, and line 3 = the last word.
It seems like no matter what I do, Internet Explorer displays the words one line at a time, one word on each line. Is this an IE problem? Firefox displays the Heading exactly as I want, but IE doesn't even come close.

CODE

<div><h1>WordOne<br />WordTwo WordThree<br />WordFour</h1></div>
or
<div><h1>WordOne WordTwo<br /> WordThree WordFour</h1></div>
or
<div><h1>WordOne <br />WordTwo<br /> WordThree WordFour</h1></div>
or
<div><h1>WordOne WordTwo <br />WordThree <br />WordFour</h1></div>

ALL display in IE5 as you might expect this to be displayed:

CODE

<div><h1>WordOne <br />WordTwo <br />WordThree <br />WordFour</h1></div>

Example output regardless of where the br / tags are placed...

WordOne
WordTwo
WordThree
WordFour

And there is lots of vacant space to the right, so it is not the length of the output line which is forcing a lf/cr.

Any suggestions??? (except don't use IE5?)
