It's a shame that IE doesn't come to the party with this one. legend is a stubborn mule that doesn't want to budge, I've really never come across such a problem with any other tags.
I know what your talking about with the fieldset tag as well, that too was a pain in the butt, I had to wrap a seperate div around it and a span inside it to get it to do what I want.
