Subject: Re: GUI naming conventions
Hi, Brian...I don't know about web, but the definitive guide
is "The Windows
Interface Guidelines for Software Development", by Microsoft
Press. It may have
been ported to the web, but if not, still an important book
to add to your
library.

My opinions are mine, and neither you nor my company can
take credit for
them.
