What is the benfit of having the picture in the first place? A highlight provides a cue (in this case visual only) as to what is the active part of the page. Some people cannot use a mouse effectively, but still benefit from the visual cue. Charles McCN On Thu, 6 Apr 2000, Jeffrey pledger wrote: Charles, i am a litel confused here. Our mouseover movements don't trigger any other actions, e.g. pop-up windows, etc. they just draw a picture to be associated with the link. what would be the benefit of having a keyboard shortcut to doing this? can you help clear this up for me so I understand this better.
