Hi all, I'm working on usability and accessibility for a project that uses Markdown. When I tried out a screenreader on the automatic e-mail links, I noticed that there's nothing there semantically due to obfuscation. I think that obfuscation in this way is a neat feature, I hadn't heard about it before. This would be even better if there was a way to both obfuscate e-mail addresses and provide title text, such as <a href="obfuscated mailto: e-mail link" title="stuff screen readers read and what shows when you hover over the link">link text</link>.
It'd be cool, too, if screen readers learned how to read obfuscated words, but the day that happens, all the spam bots will, too. ;-) Anyway, this is pretty minor, just wanted to contribute what I noticed about accessibility for food for thought and say hello. I'll write again if I notice anything else during my accessibility evaluation. Thanks, Liz Blankenship E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 515-450-0102 Website: http://www.lizblankenship.com
