When I have a vertical rule, I use ALT="|"... similarly when there is a graphical image for the bullet (when I _have_ to use it!), I use ALT="*" for the first level, and ALT="-" for the second level rather than saying ALT="bullet". Also, I now avoid using spacer GIFs, but when I did, I used to use ALT=" ". With the space in the alt text, I thought that I wasn't putting unnecessary text and still conveying the message of space. Although, with this practice, I get Bobby approval, do you all think it's a good practice? Or, do you think there is a better convention? Pawan... -- Pawan R.
