Nice work really! While trying it on my website (which is not publicly available yet), I noticed strange behavior. When you put links on list items or spans it is very difficult to activate them with a mouse! I mean clickable area (where the mouse pointer changes to hand) is very small and is located just above the linked text. And I noticed that only on Firefox v3.6. On IE8 it behaves as expected. I did not tested it on Opera yet. I am using your example No 7 (list-with-dotted-leader7). Is it possible to fix that? It is a bit annoying. Hi Paul,

Well done.:) It doesn't work if the first line wraps to the next line though so couldn't be used in a fluid layout of for menus with more text on that first line (unlike the one in the article). However it works well for you so that's fine and looks good. @Omega2: Thanks for showing your method it looks fine for single line items. Well done.:)

You can see it at http://www.chella-restaurant.co.uk/menu.html After a bit of CSS, the menu items are entered as: Item Name £ x.xx decription of food It is easy to use and update. The method has proved very robust and can cope with multiple prices per item etc very well. Also remains readable without the CSS. Great site and keep up the good work!

A good case can be made for either/all depending on circumstance. Hi Adam,

Thanks for your comments :)

Yes a DL would be a good choice and in fact in post #36 I have linked to a dl version and a table version just for completeness.

A good case can be made for either/all depending on circumstance.
