[AccessD] Margins in IE

This particular article it totally hosed.

I have my monitor set to 1600 X 1280 and I still get unwrapped lines.

I've always maintained  that MS can't do web stuff very well and this just reinforces it for me.

John,

If the M$ Webheads did things correctly, they would always set widths to
percentages so the pages can adjust to your monitor.  But as I said in
my earlier response, they seem to always use absolute pixel counts that
only work for 1400 pixel wide monitors.
