I'm sure that you have seen CSS sprite techniques that utilize changing background position on hover to change a link's state. Also, they have the added benefit of keeping from loading images on hover, limiting lag. This technique is very similar, but works like a charm for IE6 and PNG images. I know this may be a moo point at this stage, because IE6 is on the outs, but still works beautifully as a technique.]]> http://www.komodomedia.com/blog/2008/09/css-sliding-sprite-windows/ http://www.komodomedia.com/blog/2008/07/using-jquery-to-save-form-details/ http://www.komodomedia.com/blog/2007/11/css-png-image-fix-for-ie/ Creating a Star Rater using CSS. In fact, if the CSS for this article is a little confusing, you may want to visit my previous articles to get yourself acquainted.

So, out of that need was born CSS Star Rating Part Deux, a vast improvement to the first, but by no means perfection. Out of the many comments I received about the most recent version, there were still some lacking areas. By now, people's grasp as a whole has grown quite a bit I feel and I think that this time does not warrant a full-fledged tutorial (also, my lack of time doesn't help either). However, there are some significant issues with my most current Star Rating tutorial and I have always wanted to take another go at it.]]> http://www.komodomedia.com/blog/2007/01/css-star-rating-redux/
