It never occurred to me to try to handle it in the HTML. This works perfectly. Thanks much.

>>I have a system where I need to embed icons into text. It is a system of wayfinding directions. "Walk down the corridor. Take a left at the [X] sign." With [X] being a graphical representation of the sign. I'm trying to find the best way to implement this, and I suspect it is some sort of ActiveX, but I am most certainly open to other methods.
