It looks promising, but before I spend any more time on customising it, I thought I'd better check: 1. How much of a worry is it that according to sperling.com 'this technique works for all browsers EXCEPT for IE 5.23 and below. These outdated browsers don't even recognize Microsoft's embedded commands.' 2. If I can avoid using a pop out menu, does this offer advantages? Many thanks for any advice. spinningjennie

The menu degrades and as it's all css anyone with a browser that can't handle the flyout should just get a plain list. Of more concern is the fact that it doesn't work for people using the tab key to move around the page. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.

Severe arthritis or other mobility problems and they can't use a mouse. Some people have a trackball but I find those a nightmare to use and I suspect they do as well so they use the tab key instead, just needs a press. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.
