I would certainly advocate setting up the list method. It shouldn't take you 
more than 1/2 an hour. :-)

I have nothing against JavaScript per se, but I have to agree with you.

If you're writing the main part in CSS, it's sensible to do all you can and 
avoid unnecessary code.
Not only that, but the CSS is far more compact and easier to write and maintain.

I maintain a site where they often want to change the buttons or add or 
subtract them. I dread the nightmare I have to go through having to 'make' each 
button 3 times and overlay the text in XaraX, then export and let JavaScript do 
the entire placement, having first had to calculate the number of buttons, the 
placement and the link in several places in the HTML. It's an older site (with 
frames) and I will be converting it one day.

  Yeah, I'll be doing that, because the a:visited and a:hover will be  
  swapping out the image with another. Perhaps that's what I need to do  
  before I worry any more about the spacing.

  Who says you need JavaScript to swap images?? I used the CSS image  
  swapping with a website I did for a coffee shop, and as you hovered  
  over each of the nav buttons, the bullets - er, coffee beans - would  
  rotate, so it looks like they're jumping beans. :-) The power of CSS.

  Thanks!
