Well, the onus is on the user in this case to use something other than IE. But still, that doesn't mean we shouldn't add additional features and hooks for non-IE users. > In Firefox Cursor-Mode (F7) uses small text-cursor that isn't > good for bad > sighted people anyway. Not quite sure what you mean by the "anyway". Is it a "so why bother?" The small text cursor is similar to many other applications (heck, I'm typing this in Outlook with a surprisingly similar cursor). Also, the cursor scales in accordance with the height of the current text / block it's located. And, by the same rationale, if you increase the font size (which you more than likely would, if you had sight problems), the cursor will also scale accordingly. Oh, and to state the obvious, it blinks as well... Patrick ________________________________ Patrick H.
