just an observation, but be consistent about which attribute value qualifier
you use. pick one and stick with it. my choice is double-quotes. i
reserve single-quotes for wrapping strings in scripting.

yeah, i miss not being able to use align="absmiddle" as well. i've yet to
find anything similar in css.

try "onclick" instead. xhtml is case-sensitive and requires all tags and
attributes to be in lower-case.
