Ah, yes, the hack that answers the question "how can I make these particular
text links _not_ have underlines without using CSS?". The answer: screen
capture the text links, erase the underlines and put the images where the
text belongs. Two things to consider about this, though:

1) different browsers render standard "Times" text differently, so your
screen captured text may not match exactly (which, of course, might not
matter a shred).
2) some people enlarge the size of their default text, which will not effect
your "fake" text links.

Ah, the tradeoffs of designing for the web, let me count the ways...

Not to worry, you just have to add that little bit of text...must be really
toasted, eh, Suz?

Suz, I noticed, when passing this url to a browser:

http://www.cartserver.com/sc/cart.cgi?add&item=a-3003^TLCDVDR^TLCDVD-ROM^45.
00^1^5.50

(all one line) and following the links to make a purchase, that I ended up
at a form:

https://www.cartserver.com/sc/cart.cgi

that triggers a script at https://www.authorize.net

I recommended Authorize Net in the past and am wondering if the link here is
coincidental (the link came with the shopping cart software) or if you/your
client purposely decided on using AuthorizeNet? Either way, what has your
experience been, so far?

TIA,
Jack
