I'm trying to determine the purpose of the link. Why do you think it needs information about the file format and size in it? Why do you think that information is important enough to provide to a minority of users but not important enough to convince your boss to allow you to provide it for the majority? If the information is important for the link purpose, then I believe that hiding it from users with CSS would violate the spirit (although possibly not the letter) of Link Purpose. If, on the other hand, it isn't, then the other options you mention include simply not wasting your time putting the information in in the first place. (Please keep the mailing list in the loop on this. I'm sure it has subscribers who are more knowledgeable about me on the subject). -- David Dorward http://dorward.me.uk
