Thanks for the example frank1 I was able to reproduce the problem. No so much a problem with the Pedigree Chart but rather one more example of how Microsoft does it own thing. I have in the past added xml headers to the generated html files to force the browsers into 'standards mode' to try and 'create a level playing field' and eliminate some of the MS 'quirks' but they keep on coming! It appears that IE forgets it is not supposed to wrap the line when the margin falls on a word boundary. I also tested your report under IE7 and the same problem arises. One 'light at the end of the tunnel' with IE7 was that the 'ghost' background block that appears with IE6 seems to have disappeared. I did find however that I could side step the IE6 & 7 wrap issue by denying MS the opportunity to break the line at any point by replacing all spaces by non-breaking spaces. I'll put this work-around in my next release.

However the problem of the disappearing background and its shadow block is still there both in IE6 & IE7. Also present it that mysterious break in the background and shadow between the last name & the alternative name. Of course the Mozilla team are not 'squeaky clean' with the Pegigree Chart either because of their bug in failing to wrap around the right floated picture. I have tested this with both Fx 1.5 and 2.0 and both fail to wrap the text correctly.

I guess that programs have now become so complicated that it is just about impossible to write the amount of code that is needed without any bugs.

A tiny change in the code may break something that has been working for a long time.  This is why at the moment we only fix bugs.
