Hello Lisa,

I think so:
If two or more links refer to different targets but share the same link text, distinguish the links by specifying a different value for the "title" attribute of each |A| element.


But even if you do that Bobby still gives an error - it'll say it doesn't meet Priority 2 requirement.

regards,
cameron.

Subject: [WSG] accessibility question: same link phrase more than once


I was just wondering the list's opinion about blogs and CMSs that at the end of each new item, have a link that says 'read more' or 'read comments' or just 'more' .


Sitepoint, for example, uses the same link phrase more than once when pointing to different URLS:

Do not use the same link phrase more than once when the links point to different URLs. <http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/html/en/gls/g265.html>/ (7 instances) /

Nearly all CMSs and blogs do the same.

Has anyone come up with any solutions for this?

cameron.
