Eric, I googled for "lynx css". This is the most useful thing I came up with. HTH, Angus http://archives.seul.org/independence-l/Jun-1999/msg00071.html Until you explain why the page isn't fully compatible with lynx, you are just babbling. CSS does *NOT* destroy lynx compatibiility. It merely redefines IE3-5 and NS4's interpretation of logical markup tags. > Just because NN and MSIE have style sheet support, there are still > people who's browser will do a bad interpretion of the pages. I strongly disagree. Lynx does fine at interpreting logical markup tags such as <H1> <H2> <H3> , <EM> , <STRONG> , etc. If you want to make lynx CHOKE, the best way to do it is to AVOID logical markup, and use <FONT> tags (and other physical markup) , which lynx will (usually) ignore. IOW, CSS is the best way to write html that is friendly to lynx *and* 4.0 browsers. The alternative, <FONT> tags, are lynx's worst enemy. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
