Something like this:

button {padding:2px 5px;background: #FAF9F5 url(../images/bgimg.png)  
repeat;line-height: 1.5;

}

then use smaller padding left/right value for IE, e.g.
button {padding: 2px 1px !important}

Button Text

If you want to put the button text in the image, add a span class and  
wrap it inside button, then use one of the image replacement  
techniques to push the button text off the screen viewpoint.

I think Marvin needs to find a host that he can use himself.
He uses a screen reader himself, so, yes, I believe he wants a host with
screen reader friendly admin pages.

Sadly I can't answer Marvin's need. Anyone?

Cordially,
David

interface? This would be geared to the developer not the end user.

The language you use is also not tied to screen reader friendly output,
although some would argue to avoid .aspx.

If you are looking for a simple, free host and service with decent code try

I'm looking to have a quick chat to someone who's worked at  
Dominos Pizza

some time in the last 5 years - not necessarily in the IT area - even
someone who's delivered pizzas would do.  But if you've worked  
there or know
something of how they operate, I'd be grateful if you could  
contact me.

(Just being a customer isn't enough - I am too)

I need to ask a fairly basic question about an aspect of their  
operations -
I wont be asking you to break any confidences and its not for any  
competing

project.
