Better practice in which sense - just accessibility, or usability as well?
From an accessibility pov, it is better to include the links inline;

Maybe you could use a label tag - sounds analgous to the radio button /

Designing with Web Standards, is saving some painful flash backs to

Thanks for the assistance.

While on the surface that looks like a good solution, you have to
remember that by default browsers won't print any backgrounds (colors or
images) so the image you set as a background in the print.css file may
never get loaded.
Testing is certainly required as that info is scraped from the dusty

Hi,
Still attempting to unlearn in the best possible manner. In the

This is an exercise.

Perhaps this is one of those browser default CSS issues we've been
hearing about recently, setting all backgrounds in the print media to
'none'. If anyone has the time to do some testing (unfortunately I don't
at the moment) I'd really like to see the results.

I understand the th tag should be used on the items in the top row, but
I'd describe it a bit differently - the th tag should be used for any
