Yes Neerav - that's what I meant. Whatever solution the list recommends
will need to be hacked into the CMS/blog code or submitted as a feature
request.

"read more" style links
the only way i know of to add some useful info to the link would be to
hack the code which outputs the title attribute to be something like this
<a href="/blog-post-view.php?id=196678#postcomment" title="Post a
comment about <? write article title here using php or other scripting
language ?>">(reply...)</a>

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.

Nearly all CMSs and blogs do the same.
Has anyone come up with any solutions for this?

cameron.
