Chaals, This is interesting news. When you say "fix" Accesskey specifications, 1) which specifications, and 2) how do you propose they are "fixed"? Are you talking at the UAAG level? Are you saying that it would also be backward compatable? Is there a time-line? (I know that one's tough) If you are not already aware of the new crop of scripts around that hand the "power" to users, you should look at them. I referenced the URLs earlier in this thread (or can provide off list). Cheers!
