That's kinda sorta what I thought was wrong. I remember when first designing
it that making the "Text Only" text and not part of the image caused most of
the extra tables. I guess I'll just have to rework the whole bloody thing.

There is one script that changes style:color of a span through its id. Since
NS 4.x can't handle this, I just didn't bother with it. I think I wrote this
in the comments, but I might have removed it. That script is the fnChange()
I believe.

Thank you. I'd rather they use IE 5.5 because of other issues throughout the
site.

Thanks for your help, Karen.
