title: <a style=display:inline-block;height:8px;width:8px;></a> IE6: only correct size with "&nbsp;"?
body: <p>Internet Explorer (6.0): shows different sizes for the following code: why is that?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a style=display:inline-block;height:8px&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;a style=display:inline-block;height:8px&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Chromium and FF (my preferred browsers) show the correct sizes both times, but at work I am forced to use IE6.0.</p>
  
  <p>Is there something to prevent this behaviour?</p>
