Out of the question really. This part of the site is for managers, it's
not as if they're going to find a rival service or anything. As it
happens, I know that everyone with access to this part of the site is
fully-sighted and have connections in excess of 28Kbps - so I'm not at
all worried about the dreaded images-off demographic.

Sorry, way too arrogant for that. I got into CSS almost specifically so
I could enforce my own magnanimous notions about UI. Hehehe.

I may well go with that second option Darren - it's tried and tested, I
can't really complain. I'd pompously decided that I shouldn't have to
use extra markup and banal hacks to get my system to work, but it's not
as if Opera are going to re-think their policy if I sulk long enough!
