Thanks so much Holly ,
I think the span will work. its looking better now. my button solution is
not ideal though... I am still on the fence as to what course of action I
will take.....
The design spec for all buttons have rounded corners and gradient fill.
three different colors, over a dozen text variations. how to accommodate
this ... from what I understand there are two preferrable methods. using
button elements ( similar to my earlier post ) and using spans, such as:
<a class="a-button" id="some-button" href="/my_button">
<span class="button-leftcap"/>
<span class="button-text">Upload</span>
<span class="button-rightcap"/>
</a>
Spans involve less work with graphics editor, but it is alot of markup for a
single button no ?
