Re: [WSG] Javascript Dropdown Problems

Hi James, This might sound like a stupid idea - it's late and I haven't thought it through fully, but can't you hide it the relevant nodes by triggering something through onLoad on the body tag - that way if JS is disabled the page will load with the lists expanded rather than invisible.

RE: [WSG] Do we just throw out the img tag

Personally, I think the img tag has the correct semantics (and attributes) for an image. I'd just keep them for images in paragraphs and use css background for everything else. An object is just that! -Original Message- From: Michael Horowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, December 1
