eddy,
Nice and simple - I like it!
I did notice one problem: On Windows, if you are using Microsoft's "ClearType" font smoothing,
the link text gets messed up when the mouse passes over it. With ClearType turned off, everything is OK.
I've seen this behavior before, and I believe it has something to do with changing the font color dynamically when ClearType is on.
I don't think there's much that can be done about it.
Thanks,
Eric

cleartype uses two effects : font smoothing + alphablending.
Alpha text is drawed several times, that's why it gets messed up
I have to erase the background of parent window.
I tried to fix without any result

If you found a way to fix it...

[UPDATED]
Ok I fixed the CLEARTYPE problem with a colored rectangle.
It's a cheap solution.
