Part of the problem is bad, or using official W3C language, "illegal"
HTML: according to HTML 4.0/4_Transitional (the present valid standard)
specification, "objects" of all kind, and that means Java applets as
well as Javascript, are "required" to have ALT tags for embedded URLs.
So this is a *must* condition, not a "can" friendliness.
(The question is its enforceability; though for *public* sites in the
USA, under ADA, there is a legal lever. CNN though is not a public
institution, <g>).
A next thing is that a WWW browser should be able to "fish out"
ALT-tagged URLs. The more recent Lynxes for '386+ can, but not so the
(smaller und so much faster!) Bobcat-Lynx for '286s. :<
