Doing it with style
"Autumn Leaves" is a much-recorded popular song.
Originally a 1945 French song "Les feuilles mortes" (literally "Dead Leaves") with music by Joseph Kosma and lyrics by poet Jacques Prévert, English lyrics were written in 1947 by the American songwriter Johnny Mercer. It has become a pop standard and a jazz standard in both languages, and as an instrumental. "Les feuilles mortes" was introduced by Yves Montand in 1946 for the film Les Portes de la Nuit.
The film Autumn Leaves (1956) starring Joan Crawford featured the song, which was sung by Nat King Cole over the title sequence.

I have just checked the support for inline-blocks in the latest version of the most popular browsers and found that it has now been taken up by Opera, Safari and Google Chrome, so with support also in IE this is the way to style those inline links.
Tested in IE6, IE7, Firefox, Opera, Safari(PC) and Google Chrome.

Now we can use inline-blocks in all modern browsers.
Because of all the time and effort spent in producing this demonstration I would ask that you respect my copyright.
