Re: [WSG] Question about presenting numeric percentages and accessibility.

[Jon Warner]

Could you use spans or divs (inline) to add title/other descriptive tags? I'm planning a voluntary site for a day nursery and am looking to make it perfect, as a portfolio piece but as a learning platform also. In other words I'd appreciate others more experienced opinions. Regards Jon Henrik Madsen wrote: What about writing it out: one-third, two-thirds, half?

I'm writing up a website for a simple brochure site, and the copy I'm provided with refers to "something 1/3 of total" or "colour 2/3 of natural" and so on. And it just occured to me, would Number Slash Number (ie; 1/2) cause any issue in regards accessibility, be it screen readers or poor reading or math skills (the correct term for this alludes me for the moment, I'm thinking dyslexia, but not sure that correctly accounts for all potential users). As such I wondered if the <abbr> tag might be appropriate, or if anyone has a better, more suitable sugestion? Many thanks, John Unsworth. ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ******************************************************************* ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ******************************************************************* -- Jonathan Warner tel: 0800 043 8158 mob: 07823 550 813 web: www.thepixelforge.net skype: ThePixelForge 31 Cumberland Avenue Chandler's Ford Hampshire SO53 2JX ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
