Karl, Great comments and these statistics are very interesting, Ian. I have a lot more thinking to do myself about this, but a slight issue since one of my articles was cited: > for the class="link", it's happening when you create menu and you > want to style hover features, etc. I do not say, it's good, but I see > a lot of web designers doing it. For example, look at this article of > Molly E.

Note the date on that article - September 1999! I definitely do NOT think this way anymore and I'm sure many other Web designers don't either. With descendant selectors now so widely available, classing links is a bad practice IMO. Thanks, Molly :) -=- Molly E.
