Given that the 'Sliding Doors' (and many others of a similar nature) technique is based on images with positioned graphics, it makes sense to use an absolute measurement based on the original image. Percentage usage on a cross-browser basis gives *very* varied mileage, as well. You could use a script action to do the calculation of the exact positioning value of the background-image, given the intended result. IMO, of course. :) -- Cheers, Sasha ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
