Hi Jamie, its both incorrect use, and semantically wrong. Basically you are using h2 and h3 tags as the equivalent of <b>olding items, or... shudder... <font>ing items.. Its bloating the markup. All your headings are items in a heirarchical list. It is not a list of headings, its a list of items. The items should be styled appropriatly. Also, the items may well link to a heading. Thats ok :) Others may have a different point of view, but I would approach things differently Rgds Ned Collyer ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
