Re: [WSG] IE 7 check please

Hi Kepler, Thanks for checking. For http://spanish-portuguese.berkeley.edu/ - I'm not seeing a horizontal scrollbar in IE7 until you resize below around 770px (after the 3rd column drops below the 2nd). I suspect this is the behavior you wanted since FireFox behaves the same way. One thing

Re: [WSG] source order

Remember that a screen reader user has no idea how long a page is until they get to the end. They may be one line from the end, yet still have no idea what percentage is left. I'd have thought that would be a fairly useful feature to have. I often judge whether I'm going to read something on

Re: [WSG] Catch 22 list problem

My 2¢ At my College, we often wish to publish excerpts from official policy manuals &tc where we're showing Section 2.4.7, Paragraphs B through G, points 3-16, and so on... The CSS counter mechanisms are great for showing the whole document, but fall completely apart when you want to refe

RE: [WSG] Catch 22 list problem

I can see what you mean, however that would depend to a degree on what the list-number actually represents: perhaps the OP could give us a little more context? Anyway, no-one has spotted a good answer to this problem, so I merely offered this idea for discussion, as an alternative to other bad

"i wonder how many people using screen readers ever make it down there to the footer/copyright" In my experience they often do, although that's not because they are looking for it. Remember that a screen reader user has no idea how long a page is until they get to the end. They may be one line fr
