This might be a bit theoretical; but it's ramifications are eminently practical for me as I try to implement CSS in a corporate environment.
I currently need to make a case for using CSS background images with text used for responsible image replacement. There is text in the HTML which is actual content, and it is replaced through CSS with background images. Garden variety stuff post-Zen Garden, but I find myself needing to defend these images as they are being labeled "content." The solutions that are possible for the need to present graphical text are: 1) CSS background images in an external style sheet with image replacement 2) deprecated background attributes on HTML tags 3) inline styles which contain the background images 4) actual table markup with the actual image and alt text in the HTML Are there other possibilities I haven't listed? Items 2, 3, and 4 are all technically in the HTML document, item 1 is outside, in a presentation file. So, why AREN'T css background images content? (or why are they, if you're so inclined). ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
