Looks good here in FF3 on Mac, I'll check on all the relevant browsers tonight on my PC, thanks for the help, looks like it may be problem solved here, without the aid of JS which is much nicer, cheers Megan, good job.

Just use attribute selectors

Just use attribute selectors to find href attributes that end with .ppt, .doc etc. This is a snippet from one of the sites I developed:

a[href$=".doc"] {
	padding: 3px 20px 0 0;
	background: url(../images/icons/worddoc.gif) no-repeat right center;
}

a[href$=".ppt"] {
	padding: 3px 20px 0 0;
	background: url(../images/icons/powerpoint.gif) no-repeat right center;
}

Hi Megan,
Thanks for the comment, this code is eventually going to be used on a CMS site which I won't have involvement in once it is live (unless something breaks), so I won't be able to use "rel" attributes in links or classes, if you have an idea on how to add an icon automatically to a link (.pdf, .doc, .ppt, .pps) I'd love to hear from you on this, it's foxing me a little!
