Re: [css-d] External Links
I'm wanting to add indicators for links that leave our site. A little Googling included this info from MaxDesign: www.maxdesign.com.au/presentation/external/ I noticed the 2005 date of the article and just wondered if the info presented is still considered a good method or is there something better now? I'd be open to any good examples you folks have of nice external link style treatments.
