Let me be more clear on this. I would like a way to be allowed to reduce the clutter. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elizabeth J.

David I'm afraid, I do not find this helpful advice, as clutter is somewhat of a judgement call. As one of the SURL reports indicated, breadcrumbs were used by some people on the Office Max site. Therefore, one person's clutter maybe someone else's signpost for very structured Web sites. Remember that the alternative to breadcrumbs has traditionally been the lefthand navigation menu which can also be quite "cluttered". I appreciate conciseness, but too much conciseness can lead to accessibility issues also.
