I've been trying to implement an image slicing CSS technique I found here:
http://www.alistapart.com/articles/sprites/

onto a webpage currently located here (I'll move it once it works)
http://showcase.netins.net/web/nurture/advance/

I've spent hours and hours on it, and no matter what I try, it doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong?

  What is it that does not work?
  The only problem I see is that the panelXX IDs do not match up for the
:hover.

I don't understand why they're centered, and I don't get the hover.

I've put in all sorts of coordinates for the hover states, none of them
seems to work. Where am I off?

And THANK YOU

Oh, yes, and only one of the links is in place, which I also don't
understand.

  They are centered because you told them to be: "margin: 10px auto".
  Like I said previously, match up the IDs. "panel1c" is not "panel1b".

If the images in your test page are the ones you plan to use on a real
site, then all I can say is:

Please don't do this at all. You are well on your way to making an
inaccessible site. With only background images of text instead of plain
text (or even foreground images of text), those visitors who can't see
the image end up with no text at all.

BTW, search engines are in that group, in case that is important to you.
