IMO the way to do this is to write a decent HTML page first with
semantically correct markup and then do the CSS.  The point of CSS is
that it separates the look of the page from the meaning.  The downloads
page on my site gives a very simple example of what I'm on about.  In
other words design for Lynx then for Firefox.

Based on the cool mouseover stuff your CSS skills are good so it
shouldn't be too much trouble.  Sorry if you know all this already.
