david,
yes, you are right. but that really has nothing to do w/ my original
question, which was: is there a way to disable a:hover for all images
w/o resorting to something clumsy (such as the
<img class="image" .../>
declarations that you asked me to clarify).
and like i said earlier,
a img {...}
should work, but never seems to.
just another one of these things that seems like it would be so
simple.... well, thanks for playing in any case. cheers,
josh
