In this case, scripting may be the best way to go, but in some cases it is not. For example, link-targeting, which seems more structural than presentational, has had to be added to CSS 3 for Strict DTD pages because it was expunged from the strict HTML and XHTML specifications and scripting is not a reliable way to target links because users may simply disable scripting completely--something they are unlikely to do to CSS. Of course, CSS 3 will not be an especially reliable way to target links for some time either, but it should happen eventually.
