Scott - thanks! Browser support isn't too big an issue for this - the site works without it, this just adds a little extra. http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/#target-pseudo If I understand :target pseudo-class (which I don't necessarily!) it looks like you can take, say, all the anchor links and style them. It seems to be about creating groups, and giving them a treatment. Is there any css approach to comparing two things, and styling according to how they compare?
