Hey Geoff,

I developed something similar a while ago but ran into problems with IEv5.2 on 
a Mac:
http://www.websemantics.co.uk/tutorials/semantic_image_rollover_menu/

Ran out of development time before I could do anymore. 

I hate to say it but your version also has Mac IE v5.2 issues, different ones 
though.
The rollover positioning is out. Have the parent of floated elements had 
position:relative and a width stated?
I just hope it isn't a requirement, it was with mine.


Regards

Mike 2k:)2

That's great - it's a nice bit of code and it works well. I just thought you'd 
re-invented the image map because you didn't know about <map> wanted to avoid 
javascript. If you just want a hover and all your hot-spots are rectangular, 
then I css is fine I guess. Personally I find image maps and js easier and more 
flexible.

By popups I just meant the content that shows on hover. I understand how the 
links work - I've done similar things myself, with image maps and with 
absolutely positioned images. What I don't really understand is the aversion to 
javascript (and the desire to make everything a list. :)

cheers,
Geoff
