Hi, Debbie, the general idea is that when you have two text links next to each other, you can't tell where the first link stops or the next one starts. E.g.: About LADSE Member Districts That could be: (About) (LADSE) (Member) (Districts), or (About) (LADSE Member Districts), or (About LADSE Member) (Districts), or (About) (LADSE Member) (Districts), or... As you can see, the inclusion of ()s helps greatly in conveying what I meant. The same is true on the web. You can do something like this: About LADSE | Member Districts or you can do something like this: [ About LADSE ] [ Member Districts ] I usually end up with this, myself: [ About LADSE | Member Districts ] (Using these pieces of text as the example -- I know that you probably don't have them next to each other in practice.) -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@hwg.org> Vice President, Marketing and Outreach, HTML Writers Guild http://www.hwg.org
