The following html does not set the width of the anchor element to 50% of its
parent element's width:

<html>
<body>
<a href="#" style="width: 50%; border-style: solid;">Target</a>
</body>

With MS Internet explorer, the anchor is surrounded by a border that encompasses
50% of the width of the page.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the above code or url into Firefox.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The border around "Target" is with width of the word, not 50% of the width of
the page.


Expected Results:  
The border around "Target" should be 50% of the width of the page.
