Tested with JAWS 4.02, and yes, it reads it as "search". That's not to say, though, that all screenreaders behave this way... Let me guess...underlines for accesskeys ? One thing that worries me about doing those sorts of things is that the result is very...non semantic. Not sure how, say, search

Re: [WSG] overflow: auto;

Chris I use overflow : auto; to display text that requires its whitespace to be preserved - i.e the headers of an email message and the source of an email message. It's a fantastic thing in this instance, but don't go too wild - it can lead to confusion about what scrollbar needs to be used, a

[WSG] Very odd behaviour on IE5 Mac. Any ideas?

Hello WSG, I'm having very strange problems with the site I'm working on. I've been given the unenviable task of going through someone else's CSS to fix any bugs in IE 5 Mac & PC. Fixed the IE5 PC bugs but am stuck with this odd behaviour in IE5 Mac. Basically the content in the left hand box

Re: [WSG] Very odd behaviour on IE5 Mac. Any ideas?

Hi Try hiding the CSS from this magnificent piece of "software" by using the \*/ hack as outlined elsewhere in a thread here (try mail-archive.com) - it's called the backslash hack, It's the only hack I've employed as users on OS 8 and 9 have no upgrade path. Does tend to bloat the CSS a tad as

[WSG] IE:Mac clears float for no apparent reason

Re: [WSG] Very odd behaviour on IE5 Mac. Any ideas?

Joe, Don't know if this will help at all, and I haven't looked closely at the code (I don't envy your job there at all!) but it does look as though whatever it is has a cumulative effect. So each time you roll over a link, the affected left hand margin items jump down the same distance again. T

Andy, Just tried it with a preview version of Apple's Spoken Interface in Safari. I stuck your code into the middle of a standard form element to see what would happen, and it read it as "S" "earch". I'd be interested to know why (how the reader determines what to read and how). -Hugh Todd Here

This method uses GD, which unfortunately is the only bundled graphics library available in php. GD is fine for most purposes, it can be a little memory intensive at times though.

Whatever the technique, using images for headings is, to me, backward, "pixel perfect", print thinking. I visited the site - I only have a modem connection. I dind't like the way the headings disappeared, got replaced with image placeholders which slwly filled up with text that was there in

It is a combination of javascript show/hide thingies and having absolute positioned blocks in the middle of the source code. A possible workaround is move the whole code block(s) for those submenus either to the very beginning of the page, or at the very end. Philippe On Jun 16, 2004, at 10:52
