Have used trackball, looking for software approach for dhtml ie is it a recognised standard across graphical browsers that a left click followed by a pixel move indicates drag whereas a mouseup without pixel move equals a link. basically I've yet to find a dhtml program that drags objects that are links to external content. It looks like I might have to write this 'from scratch', and I'd like to start from the right premise. short code sample: <div id="pussy" style="position:absolute; width:32px; height:32px; z-index:1; left: 75px; top: 250px"> <img src="images/pussy.gif" width=32 height=32 border=0 alt="Top Cat"> </div> this is draggable, however if I add: <div id="pussy" style="position:absolute; width:32px; height:32px; z-index:1; left: 75px; top: 250px"> <a href="http://www.peepo.com/"> <img src="images/pussy.gif" width=32 height=32 border=0 alt="Top Cat"> </a> </div> it now is not draggable but does have a working link. probably this is due to my capturing events incorrectly, and I'm looking into a workaround. I still have to figure out how to differentiate, and time could be an option ie quick = link. do we have any info on this... jonathan chetwynd IT teacher (LD) j.chetwynd@btinternet.com http://www.signbrowser.org.uk
