Hi Elle,
It might sound silly but I first found out about MS Smart Tags
yesterday. I found an article on ALA about them from 2001.
Just wanted to ask, does anyone know what happened with them since?
And would the meta tag: work? or is it still necessary?
Even MS eventually had to accept it wa

My good people,
It's really a matter of simple common sense. Yes, we want to cater to
the largest possible audience. But in all reality, unless our site in
question is the first web page someone has ever encountered, they'll
understand that whether they click, press enter or any other possible

Hi John,
Do you ever find that your solution causes you page layout problems
(that is, including the uri as the link text)?
When I first encountered “web standards” folk, it was suggested to me
that including uris as link text wasn’t ideal for accessibility reasons,
because of screen readers

Doesn't "More details on product x" mean exactly the same thing as "Click
here for more details on product x" if the whole line is a link? Surely
people recognise links enough that they don't need to be told to click
every single one?

Good day all,
I am seeking informations about rendering a fluid site visit, I mean avoiding
the most possible "waiting time / loading animation". For an online shop
which will contain 4 "modules" on the same page :
* Long list menu with a window decorate image for every text link rollover

with Eric's CSS Charts and wanted to have the actual data in table,
repositioning them somehow for display. It was rather hacking the
elements to the position.
