I think it would be more useful to try an work out where Marvin is
coming from when he mentions those two programs. He's on a web design
course and has some awareness of web standards and that it's good to
support screen readers. Some of these courses are still teaching 'Save
as HTML' and bingo you're done (perhaps with some tweaks), whereas I
assume most people on this list have got all the basic concepts down and
write all their code by hand and are used to using css to convey design.
I'm guessing, and no offence to Marvin at all, that he's getting
confused by the minefield of opinions that abound around the topic of
web standards and is still working through the basic concepts and
principles that we take for granted. I've not read the whole thread but
I'm not sure anybody has actually tried to answer his questions.
So, Marvin,
Photoshop is for creating/editing graphics and sometimes designing a
website.
You code your website content with HTML,
You then use the graphics/design created in photoshop via the CSS to
style the HTML.
JAWS is then used by some people to read the HTML out.
Photoshop has nothing to do with web standards directly and JAWS
compatibility is down to the quality of your HTML.
That's probably an over simplified explanation but my point is instead
of arguing about what's OT at least try and get it onT where possible.
We're here to educate aswell as discuss.

Do you see the part that says'When Web Standards Are Involved'?
I didnt mention photoshop anywere, i said when Web Standards are
Involved.
So since when does Photoshop mean Web Standards? Because i didn't say
that.
