RE: [WSG] CSS technique quest for tabs
The only problem is that, on your page at least, there are multiple elements of your HTML code that have the same id! id=active. It would be better to use a class so that you can have multiple tabs on the same page. Pat -Original Message- From: listdad@webstandardsgroup.org [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tee G.

(or just specifying serif or sans-serif in your stylesheet?) These are usually set with sensible defaults (or, in my case, with my preferred fonts and sizes) and are guaranteed to work on _any_ platform. The web is different from print and it is often better to abandon the attempt at total control over appearance which one has in print design.

RE: [WSG] More than one style in one class atribute ?
The doc says that this is a list, so here you go ... you can use several classes should you wish to.

RE: [WSG] Screen Readers, abbr and code
Use abbr or acronym ... but abbr is better. Please also notice that this tag may not be recognized by some browsers. Therefore, it is recommended to embrace the abbr tag with a span tag that will do basically the same thing. abbr title=...span title=...acronym/spanabbr Pat Boens www.fastwrite.com -Original Message- From: listdad@webstandardsgroup.org [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sean Fraser Sent: 14 August 2006 23:31 To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: [WSG] Screen Readers, abbr and code My question is Is it better for screen readers when ALL abbreviations are identified by abbr? Or, instead of using abbr, should I wrap the code with code? Sample code: !DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd; html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml; xml:lang=en-us lang=en-us meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=utf-8 I cite code in my articles. [Please see http://www.elementary-group-standards.com/archives/site-standards/why-xhtml. html for an actual page which has fifty such code inclusions.] I know (or, at least, as stated in various articles) screen readers read' abbr as characters as opposed to attempting to pronounce them as words. I haven't been able to find any explanations of how screen readers render - read or pronounce or ignore - text set inside of code. I am willing to use abbr for all instances on all abbreviations but I do not know which is best for screen readers, abbr or code. So. Use abbr? Or, use code? Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
