First, a suggestion on posting. When posing a new question, start with a completely new piece of mail. You used a reply to a previous question which placed your new question at the end of someone else's thread, where it was probably overlooked all day. I can't reproduce the image problem in my IE6. Not sure why it would be failing for you. As for accessibility, the HTML structure is always more important than the CSS. As long as all the navigation is in a list, either CSS approach produces the same results in a screen reader. -- Bob Easton Accessibility Matters: http://access-matters.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
