EDIT: Rather than a negative text-indent, which wasn’t working right in IE, I used a “display:none” … So this thread’s title is now a misnomer
So I have a nav menu, and the main sections use images rather than actual text, because we need them to be a particular font. The image is just a background added in the CSS (with rollovers), so the actual <a> tag in the XHTML doesn’t need to contain anything.
However, for the sake of SEO/accessibility, I added the appropriate text inside some <span> tags, and just hid it with a “display:none” in my CSS.
You can see the site here.
So I’m wondering: is this an ok way of handling this issue, or did I take some evil shortcut that Google will frown on?
Thanks
