Ingo, Georg, Thank you for responding.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/css/pointer-events > That is awesome, and exactly the kind of solution I was hoping for. It works for me in Firefox and Chome. Of course, all indications are that it does not work in Internet Explorer. I will, however, resist the urge to rant about the obvious frustration with how IE is always the exception when it comes to useful and easy solutions. I'm not sure if I can call this totally solved without IE support. I can get away with not supporting IE6, but I can't dismiss 7 and up. -- Dave M G ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
