A small rider ...
If you say:
1. Choose the Postings button, etc.,
rather than Click. It covers the possibility of
using the keyboard to navigate (tab keys, etc)
rather than the mouse.
This may be rare or even unsupported with your
application, but you don't lose anything by
allowing for it. Yes, I know this wasn't your
question, but this is TECHWR-L ...
Regards,
Steve
