Wiring javascript to the divs just for navigation seems like a hack and degrades accessibility.. In this case, my requirements are for 2 sets of borders on my fixed-dimension lin...

What problem does XHTML strict solve?

I really don't understand the fascination with XHTML strict. Inline JavaScript typically requires a rats nest of escapes to make it compatible with XHTML and semi-backwards compatible with MSIE 5 & 6.

Semantic value of span

The span element would seem to be exactly like a div, but at the in-line level rather than at the block level, however I can't seem to think of any beneficial logical divisions that the span element can provide.

Can you style an html radio button to look like a checkbox?

I have an html form that a user will fill out and print.

How can I make a DIV behave like an IMG for use as a CSS sprite?

I have written code that automatically creates CSS sprites based on the IMG tags in a page and replaces them with DIV's with (what I thought was) appropriate CSS to position the sprite image as a background letting the appropriate part show through -- the problem is that I cannot get DIVs to behave as drop in replacements for IMGs. If...
