[...] Grrr... Please, please ,please - if you tell someone about stylesheets as a solution to a problem *today*, also mention the fact that no major browser supports stylesheets *today*. Don't pretend it is a deployed technology - it isn't. In the last 9.3 *million* hits on a site I maintain with CSS stylesheets - there have been only 27 hits on the stylesheets (19 of them were 2 to 2 1/2 months ago - during the first two weeks the site was online, some of which is contamination from myself). Right now, the *only* widely viewable way to get a top to bottom fade is to make a background image such as his 50x1045 one. -- Benjamin Franz
