[WSG] Horizontal ordered lists

[Angela Galvin]

Hello,

I'm having a totally BIZARRE problem where I'm trying to style an 
ordered list so that it displays in a horizontal line WITHOUT losing 
the numbering.


The code and CSS I'm using is below:

div#sections_nav ol li {
float : left;
width :  80px;
}



Planning &Strategy
Issues & Messages
Channels & Processes
Style & Culture
Measurement
Employee Involvement
Skills



As soon as I try to position the li using 'display: inline' or 'float: 
left' the numbering disappears in Internet Explorer.




I'm totally stumped! Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

Many thanks,
Angela

[WSG] Making PDF and Word files accessible

[Angela Galvin]

Hello all,

I have the task of adding a bunch of PDF and Word files to a web site I 
work on, that currently conforms to WAI Priority 1 guidelines.


My first question is that if I convert the PDF files to HTML to make 
them more accessible, am I right in thinking that this is only half my 
job done? If the original file wasn't marked up correctly in the first 
place before being saved as PDF (with headings, etc) does this mean 
that its still not really accessible?


Secondly, with the Word documents, if there is an easier way to convert 
them to HTML? At the moment I am saving as HTML from Word, taking them 
into Dreamweaver and using 'Clean up Word HTML'. After that I use 'Find 
and replace' to strip out all ,  and attributes from  
such as "class" and "style". At which point I still have to mark up the 
document with proper headings, bulleted lists, etc. A little 
time-consuming and fiddly to say the least!


Am I doing this right or is there another way to make these files 
accessible? (and make my life easier, after all it is Friday :-) )


Angela
