To me, adding something like: class="FirstItem" to a couple of elements is much less clunky than adding a dozen or so lines of JavaScript that may or may not work, depending on browser settings. I'd only use JavaScript as a very last resort Regards -- Bert Doorn, Better Web Design www.bwdzine.com Fast-loading, user-friendly websites ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
