First of all I make the text size minuscule and indistinguishable from the rest of the page [...] The arguments against this are first of all that the above technique for hiding text isn't perfect in a lot of browsers, and that even if it does work, any user agent that has disabled images will make the whole <h1> illegible. Valid points,
Exactly.
but I haven't bumped into them yet to the best of my knowledge :P.
And how could you if you never disable images yourself? Let me tell you my experience. At times it does happen, that I come across pages that have exceedingly long loading times, be it due to tons of images and scripts, or network failures. In these cases I disable images (and scripting). Sometimes the result makes me cry.
Mihael, I share your view that <h1><img/></h1> is a bit ugly.
Why? A logo is always more than decoration, it is content. A logo is important. Now IF you think that the logo is indeed the most important heading of a page, include it as what it is - an image! For users like me, who sometimes browse with images disabled, the alternative text in the alt attribute will be more than welcome. Irrespective of the possibility of using images in level 1 headings, I question its reasonability. Is a logo really sensible as a heading, the most important heading? I would rather put the logo inside a paragraph or division element with id or class attribute "logo". Or convince the WHAT-WG of introducing a new logo element in HTML 5 :-) Cheers, jens -- Jens Brueckmann http://www.yalf.de ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
