The project I'm trying to do involves a form where some of the fields are laid out horizontally.
I have a really bare-bones example here with as little irrelevant code as possible: http://feral.chaosnet.org/odd/whymsie.html
In Firefox, there is no difference between the way the top and the bottom forms are rendered.
In MSIE8, the bottom form is misaligned. There's weird padding on the left edge of each input field.
The only difference in the code is that there's a <span> tag around each label and input.
Can anybody explain why this happens and if the <span> tag here is the best way to solve this issue?

every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

I put one in the sample document. Still doing the same thing.
Edit: actually, the same document works when it's uploaded to my web host, but not when it's opened from a file local to my hard drive.
Whatever, I'm just going to chalk this up to MSIE being dumb. Thanks, De.

In IE8 go to Tools -> Compatibility View Settings and untick the "Display intranet sites in Compatibility View."
I have no idea why it's the default, but it's caused me a few headaches when showing my boss a product that's half-finished and the layout / Javascript is knackered.
Ah-ha! That explains it. Thanks!
