[Javascript] IE/win click detection, not on text

List,

I know I read about this somewhere, but I'm not finding it.

I have a web form.  The labels are display: block, so they take up  
the whole th that they are in.  I have a click handler on the label  
to bring up a help screen.  The first label in the first row of the  
table responds to clicks in the whole space taken up by the label  
element.  The rest are only clickable on the text.

Is there a way to make ie work like every other browser on the planet  
as far as this issue is concerned.

I can put up a test page if necessary, but it feels like something  
'everybody' knows ( but me :=) )

Thanks!



Roger
