This is Yet Another Pure-CSS Popups Question; I didn't see my particular query addressed in the archive, so I apologize if the solution is there and I just missed it.
I'm using the technique to provide selection hints in a tabbed interface; roll over the tab, get a description of why you might pick that tab. You can see a partial, anonymized version of the page here: http://thereeds.org/~mreed/test_css.html. The problem is that the most natural form for the description, based on the source documentation and the customer, is a bulleted list. But an unordered list is illegal inside an anchor, so the page won't validate in its current form. The solutions I can think of are three: 1. use a series of <span>s instead of <li>s, but style them as list items with CSS; 2. do the popup with JavaScript instead of CSS, so the text doesn't have to be within an anchor; 3. leave it as-is and don't sweat the lack of validation. Now, the full interface actually requires JavaScript, so I wouldn't be orphaning any users if I went with #2; it just feels clunkier than the CSS technique. But option #1 feels clunkier still. I could live with any of the above, but if someone has a better idea, I'd love to hear it. Thanks in advance for any help. -- Mark J.
