But Lynx is still used by people, and I wouldn't want people to see a page spattered with these strange "D-link" things unless they wanted it that way. Lynx should, by default, hide D-links unless the user explicitly requests them (with some command key). When shown, the D-links could probably just be "[D]" to minimize the visual disruption. -- Liam Quinn Web Design Group Enhanced Designs, Web Site Development http://www.htmlhelp.com/ http://enhanced-designs.com/Received on Saturday, 25 April 1998 12:13:48 GMT
