Speech bubble with right pointer

Information

Based on the javascript version of Speech Bubbles at willmayo.com this is a light weight CSS only version. Whilst it does not have the flexiblity of the javascript it does still work with javascript off.

This works in IE5.5, IE6, IE7, Firefox, Opera and should be ok in all Safari browsers. IE5.01 doesn't quite make it and has a one pixel error in working out the zero top margin of the paragraph element.

The images used are as follows.

• Top left 1
• Top left 2
• Top left 3
• Top left 4
• Top right 1
• Top right 2
• Top right 3
• Top right 4
• Bottom left 1
• Bottom left 2
• Bottom left 3
• Bottom left 4
• Bottom right 1
• Bottom right 2
• Bottom right 3
• Bottom right 4
• Pointer 1
• Pointer 2
• Pointer 3
• Pointer 4

If you would like speech bubbles with no images then I have a demonstration here bubbles with no images.
