I'm working on an internal web app. The only browser I need to consider is
IE6 (but for both Win2K and WinXP). I have a label inside a fieldset that
I'm using negative margins to switch around where it appears relative to
other text (depending on the CSS design chosen by the user). For some
reason, the display is acting as if there is a new fieldset at the
negative margin. There is a blank space that matches the size of the
legend.
You can see a jpeg of the result @:

Here's the CSS
..dateText {
margin-top:1.5em;
}
em {
display:block;
font-style:italic;
}
fieldset {
border-bottom:none;
border-left:none;
border-right:none;
border-top:1px solid #fff;
}
fieldset legend {
}
..labelSwap {
display:block;
margin-top:-2.4em;
margin-bottom:1.2em;
}
This *margin-top:-2.4em;* seems to be the culprite, because when I comment
it out, the line disappears.
Here's the code for that line:
<p><em class="dateText">Title * First MI. * Last Suffix</em>
<label class="labelSwap">Borrower Name</label>
<blah blah blah>
Have I discovered a new bug? Have I come across a known bug? Can I fix
this?
