Could you somehow rephrase the above (for those of us who are logically impaired <G>). I thought the purpose of the D-link IS so that those who want a verbal description can get one. (?) Are you opining that the D-links themselves should only appear on request, rather than being a constant reminder that *there's more*? If so (and I can agree with that concept), do you have a suggestion on how that might best be done on a page? Thanks for any clarifications, from any sources.
