If you have italic text within a block of normal text, then there will
be some spacing issues, although the text remains readable and the
layout doesn't break. But in that case you can use height insead of
zoom. However, you must set overflow to visible, inspite of the seeming
illogic. So for IE6:
overflow: visible;
height: 1em;
And the parent block should be in default alignment - not fully justified.
The fix for IE5 should remain as stated in my earlier post.
