Hello Tonico, hello list, >Is it just fashionable to use <ul>s for navigation? Which standard says >that a navigation should be a list? >Who benefits from more semantic /navigation/?
Well, some say: a navigation semantically is a list, others say: it's not. (I also think, it's a list and semantic markup is a part of webstandards, not of fashion). But IMHO the deciding advantage is: subnavigations, that are nested in li are read out (as nested) in some Screenreaders (f.e. Jaws, unfortunately not HPR). So in my opinion, in (semantic) theorie and (assistive) practice we should use lists. (And we still have all possibilities in css-design.) I also had hard problems with horizontal menus including subnavigation and gave up. But as we have an example, that it works, it's only one time too learn it and the hard times are over :-) Greetings Stefan ***************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ *****************************************************
