buttons
Hi
I would suggest the easiest way to do this is using CSS. a:link, a:vist,a:hover, a:active. pseudo classes. They are reasonably simple to use and there are loads of tutorials on the web.
If you really dread creating your own buttons and working out the HTML I highly recommend project seven stuff. The support is as good as here and their menu systems are search engine friendly.
