I was thinking about something related -- but the goal is to show dates in the users timezone. It would work by walking the DOM and looking for dates encoded this way. See http://smackman.com/2006/05/10/hcalendar-and-timezones/

I wonder how doing something like this would inter-operate with screenreaders? Do they walk the DOM after scripts have run? Or do they parse the HTML themselves?

Not exactly.  According to the specification, you are supposed to
follow ISO 8601, which allows optional hyphens and colons (and maybe
other characters? I'm not sure), like so:

<abbr class="dtstart" title="2006-05-17T12:00">May 17, 2006 - 12:00</
abbr>

Other than the T, I would think that should be comprehensible when
read aloud.

Ah, this looks (and sounds) better. Now, if only I was able to change
the T to " at " all would be well.

Regards,

Peter
