You can't "turn it into a replaced inline element". You can set the CSS 
display property to "block" (display:block), or to "inline-block" 
(display:inline-block), the width property applies to both. The 
"inline-block" value is supported by IE5.5+, Opera 7+, recent iCabs and 
recent KHTML based browsers (Safari, Konqueror). Inline-block is *not* 
supported by Gecko based browsers (Firefox, Mozilla suite).
