A trick which uses XHTML + javascript to recreate the existing &#60;a> tag. As a software engineer, using javascript to reinvent functionality that is already part of the language you are using sticks a special kind of needle into a certain part of my lizard brain. Of course, clever spellings of webskills makes up for all of it. I refer specifically to the fact that the header of the site uses a div+onclick javascript to provide a root site link.
