IE rendering of block element <a>

I hope someone can answer my quick question …

IE isn’t rendering my <a> tag like a normal block element when I set the css for it as display: block.

Is there any reason why is wouldn’t stretch to the full width of my container element like a H1 tag?

Thanks!

post your code or a link to your page, it could be any number of things

Is the anchor tag nested within another block element?

I could be mistaken but I think by default if you don’t specify a width on an <a> tag with display: block;, it automatically acts like a header tag
