I don't think so. This is just compounding the problem that is already present. It is only with background-position that CSS uses x and y coordinates. I believe this is since such a technique was used with IE4 and 'coord' which are generated by OS app. Also, how do we offset from right and bottom? Something like the following is not good. background-position-x: right 10px; background-position-y: bottom 10px; 1. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system> -- Alan http://css-class.com/ Armies Cannot Stop An Idea Whose Time Has Come. - Victor Hugo
