That's great news (text-based nav etc). I just wanted to check what
the thinking was on the subject. If anyone's interested, I've done
some work on redefining the default lib.stdheader to dynamically
procude FIR headers (e.g. something like this: <h2>Lorem Ipsum
Dolor<em style="background:url(loremIpsumDolor.gif)"></em></h2>).
Using TS only is not ideal since (as far as I've been able to
determine so far) there's no effective way to get the style specifying
the background image into the head of the document. In any case, the
headers degrade well in both css-off and images-off circumstances.

Interesting. Again, nice work on the design Reuven.
