Karen, I've Cc:'d Brandon on this as well... I know CSS has a bad reputation 'round these parts as being "non-Surv PC friendly", but after having spent some time learning the details ... and REASONS... for CSS, I think it might be worth a look. This example is a case where CSS can make PERFECT sense. To simplify it a bit: Brandon could define a few styles for various parts of his site, then have changes ripple through the ENTIRE site (every page) by editing a single CSS file. CSS also allows for alternative presentation (i.e. printed versus on-screen). So for example, if Brandon decides that the red text on green background isn't what he really wants, only a single edit would be required. Now, CSS CAN be annoying to work with, but I've developed a simplified approach that I'm using that seems to provide good backwards compatability, AND looks OK on Netscape 4.x, AND looks quite presentable on new browsers. I believe Ben has done similar work. I'd be happy to share my experiences. (Anyone's welcome to give the sites a spin at http://www.ttlexceeded.com with various browsers.) - Bob To unsubscribe from SURVPC send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe SURVPC in the body of the message.
