The question is, have *you* tried it?  This was my first idea on this 
topic, but the minute I took to throw it into an HTML page showed it 
didn't work (in Firefox).

I know it's time-consuming, but the quality of the discussion is much 
higher when people take the time to test their advice before 
posting.  And remember -- archives are forever!  Please understand 
that this is just as much advice to myself as it to anyone else -- 
most of my faux pas on listserves have resulted from quick replies 
without testing.

Regards,

Paul
