in NS/Moz. Basically, it would not display the background image for the
links. I know that a similar feat could be attempted by using straight
div's instead of a tags, but that leads to even more
functionality/accessibility issues. For now, it seems that we are stuck
with scripting. Unless someone else has some more positive feedback??

Here was my sugg. To Brendan:
Make the text and the corner a gif, with a transparent background, and just change the hover color -
it will save k, download speed, and response time on mouseover
(css image mouseovers seem to react slowly to me, perhaps because the don't cache)
<style>
a.turbo {background-color:blue}
a.turbo:hover {background:red}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<a class="turbo" href=#><img src="Untitled-3.gif" width="121" height="19" border="0" alt="" /></a>
