[WSG] Windows Mobile on XP SP2
I am not sure if this is off topic or not. If it is off topic, contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have an HP IPAQ HW6955 PDA running Mobile Speak Pocket (MSP) and want to start designing web pages for the Windows Mobile Platform. When I contacted Microsoft about this, I was told to check the CD that came with the IPAQ and to also contact HP. Microsoft active Sync is okay for viewing and modifying files, but is not great for seeing my work on a P4 2.4GHz Windows XP SP2 PC. I realize I need to find an emulator, however, where do I find it? -- Love Hayden (Super Duper Guide Dog)and The harness attachment Angus MacKinnon MacKinnon Crest Saying Latin - Audentes Fortuna Juvat English - Fortune Assists The Daring Web page http://www.infoforce-services.com It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.

Not everything has to be so damn usable that it has no visual flair, something that, sadly, tends to be the norm on this list. This is neat if only because it's quite unique.

I've certainly seen a lot worse.

Re: [WSG] Is RTF accessible?
This topic is very interesting. As a screen reader user I have enjoyed always getting Rich Text files. I use to get bills in HTML which was great. However, everything is now PDFs. I hate PDFs! With a little more care, you could do everything a PDF does in an HTML file. I use a RTF editor called Jarte (http://www.jarte.com) with conversion packs I downloaded from Microsoft. My Jarte word Processor can now read everything from Word 97 to Word 2007. I am not a lover of Word and do not have it installed on ny PC. Besides being a resource hog Word takes over everything and has ties to everything on the PC. I do not know what is worse, Word or a virus.

Re: [WSG] Firefox and IE font sizes
James Thank you for your help. I have been going through what you suggested.

I am a newbie to all of this. I have been working on the following.

Re: [WSG] Title attribute
Let me see if I am understanding correctly. The Title attribute is not needed any more. As long as links are in simple language and their is a description of a photo and/or graphic on the side or top and bottom.
