Re: CREATING WEB PAGES AND JFW
I use JFW with Microsoft FrontPage 98, and a little customizing has made the combination work very well indeed. If you want to do basic home page creation, however, you can get away with creating your pages with something as simple as Notepad. Making your page speech-friendly is mostly an issue of labeling graphical images with some meaningful text so that the graphics aren't just blank holes in your page from a blind user's perspective. That's my opinion on the subject.

Re: CREATING WEB PAGES AND JFW
Hi Mike, I'm a little green when it comes to HTML and web pages, but my girlfriend has had a site up for a couple of years and wanted to address your exact concerns when designing her page. Check out : www.w3c.org/markup and www.hwg.org [the HTML Writers Guild] I believe they address the issues of proper web design and accessability. They stress conforming to the 4.0 standard (whatever that is -- I think it's the latest internationally adopted standard).

Re: CREATING WEB PAGES AND JFW
If you're interested in creating web pages. Check out HTML Goodies at: http://www.htmlgoodies.com You can learn HTML there, which can be written in notepad. I find that web pages are easier to create and understand that way. If you would like to forego learning HTML, I might suggest Front Page express. That seems to work okay with JFW. As far as creating accessable web pages. Well, if you are a Jaws user, and you can read you're page clearly, then you shouldn't have too much trouble. Just steer clear of frames, and for me, make your links as to-the-point as possible. Good luck. If you have other questions feel free to mail me.
