How To: FP Navigation as Text with an image behind the text

[Ruben]

Hi,
I'm trying to meet web accessibility standards, one of the problems that I
have come across is that i have not been able to use the FP dynamic
navigation as what standards describe.
Basically, text-navigation must be used.
I'd like to be able to use some type of rectangle frame like this web site,
http://derrel.net/ but not the FP Java Script as it's not compatible either.
But preferably an image as the button, but the text on the button must be
text NOT an image with words on it, but selectable so that visually impaired
people can use software to read it.
Thanks in advanced

Just specify an alt text for the image. Screen readers will take that
instead of the image.

Thanks for the sugestion, but that requirement is marked as a must, there are
possibly other reasons why this is marked this way.
Thanks anyway.

Check the menu here -

This is a menu that uses images, and is completely accessible to
screenreaders. Try looking at it with CSS/javascript turned off and see
what you get....

Thanks Murray,
i don't think that I wuold be able to implement this using FPs navigation
components. Because we have many pages and we want to make it easier for our
users to publish to the internet, we need to be able to use the front page
navigation.

No, I don't think you would be able to do that either. However, it's not so
difficult to do manually.....
