Thanks, I tried floating it before, but I wanted to retain the
"block-element behavior" and wanted to avoid adding extra clearing
elements. Setting display:table;width:0px; works as expected.

Will there be any problems in the long run, if I redefine the display type
of H2, as the element will be used a lot?
