IIRC, if the line lengths for any <pre> section are too wide, IE
recalculates the width of the div to accomodate the longest line on
the page.  Other browsers don't behave this way (as far as I
remember).

I suspect the snippet "Non-default tuplet numbers" in the Tuplets
section is the culprit.  If the values of #'text are moved to separate
lines, that should solve the problem.
