We are talking HTML 4 here, so to have a link you have to use an anchor tag, a form or javascript. Frank is correct, a link is semantically correct way to go and to get the behaviour John wants, he is better off using javascript than a button. Though I don't know of a way of disabling a link with javascript The form option, gives more control, but is less semantically correct than a plain link and will work with javascript disabled. You can use a button outside of a form and attached javascript to it. This might not be semantically correct, does everything John wants. Only problem does not work with javascript disabled. -- Nick Cowie http://nickcowie.com ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
