I agree with Zoe. Just because it can be done with CSS, does not mean it
should be done. Replacing and image on a page is a job better done with CSS
in concert with JavaScript and the DOM.

For an excellent primer on the subject see "DOM Scripting: Web Design with
JavaScript and the Document Object Model" by Jeremy Keith,
http://www.domscripting.com/.

The Project Seven website also has a good tutorial on accessibility at:
http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/accessibility/pop_integrated/index.htm

Be sure to visit the example site at :
http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/accessibility/pop_integrated/pmmsite/index.htm

Note how the example site, with a fly out menu, can be navigated without the
use of the mouse. Good stuff.
