Just a stab in the dark here considering I haven't seen your page, but would the following suggestion work for you? Please excuse the crudity of my example but it does demonstrate the principle. (tabBG.gif is attached). <html><head> <style> li { position: relative; float: left; padding: 1em 1em 0.1em 1em; list-style-type: none;} li img { position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; width:100%; height:100%; } li .text { position: relative; z-index: 10; } </style> </head><body> <ul> <li><span class="text">A Menu Item</span> <img src="tabBG.gif"/> </li> <li><span class="text">More</span> <img src="tabBG.gif"/> </li> <li><span class="text">Something Else</span> <img src="tabBG.gif"/> </li> </ul> </body></html> Robert Koberg wrote: > > Boris Zbarsky wrote: > >>> I guess we will simply not support mozilla resizing >> >> >> >> Does that mean you won't worry about what happens when someone >> resizes the font >> in Mozilla?
