Thanks for forwarding notice of this to the list. It looks really interesting. I understand your reluctance to use Javascript, but my impression is that current browsers are much more consistent in their DOM implementations, and so hiding and unhiding <div>s and pinning overlay items to particular locations is much less painful now. In a previous position I had to code overlay menus that were not tied to absolute locations on the screen, but rather to the location of images that were in a centered <div>. The menus had to work on Netscape 4.7+ as well as MSIE, and on Windows, Mac OS, and Solaris displays. I would hate to have to do something like that for older browsers again, but to code for recent Firefoxes and MSIEs would be much easier I suspect. Chuck
