I like it. You've achieved a very difficult task: taking a "pixel-
perfect" layout and building it on the web in a way that's broadly
pixel-perfect, yet without compromising accessibility. You're to be
congratulated.

The designer has achieved a good result too. They've produced
something that's attractive and doesn't have the usual "Designed by
Geeks" square-box look of the typical standards-based site. Now they
need to relax and not be obsessive about the trivial details you
describe. They've met the useful goals, now they should stop before
aesthetic trivia starts to break code with technically significant
issues.

Congratulations. You've both worked well on this one, you've achieved
both of yoru goals, even though this tend to pull in opposite
directions.


Please take yourself and the designer to the recently posted site
(Massage in Canada) and show them how to achieve such a result. Now
there was a ugly site that needed this sort of design input.
