Paul, Thanks for the browser help...
In some ways I am also objecting to the way I used the spacers, but think it was the most elegant solution that I could find. I checked it using Fangs, and the screen reader output seems perfect. The only other option I could think of was to use divs or something instead - avoiding the 'paragraph' information I am currently attaching to them.

It seems to work fine (with text-resizing) in WinXP in Mozilla 1.7.2, Netscape 7.1, and Opera 7.23. I know some folks (including perhaps myself) will object to your use of the CSS equivalent of spacer gifs, since they have no semantic content at all, but it does work. I wonder if such objections would fall silent if you'd used a column of foreground image slices in staggered widths instead of <p> tags?
