legend {
display:block;
}

^ doesn't work. Any ideas?

I need my legends to act like headings.

This may or may not help as I'm so new to the web game, but does it have a width or a float set? I recall reading something about it needing that, but I may be mis-remembering.

Just a suggestion to get the ball rolling!

I saw this one early, and it looked like an easy one.

Um, yeah.

So I had a fiddle around. Then I did some google searches. Which turned up people with the same problem, but no good solutions.

The best solution I saw was to wrap the legend in a span, and then apply the display: block; to the span. Which is probably not the answer you were looking for. :(

I worked my way around the problem by using the background color of the form. I basically, wanted my legends to have a background color that spanned the width of the form element.

Anyone know a way to center the text inside a legend tag? Assuming its a inline element I'm almost certain its not possible without a wrapper.
