That may have both positive +and negative effects on accessibility. The positive aspect is that it +allows the content in the document to be kept in logical order, so +that the document is as functional as possible without the style sheet +and on media where the style sheet doesn't apply. A negative aspect is +that a document that has a defined tab order (the order in which +elements get the focus when the tab-key is pressed) will show on the +screen with a tab order unrelated to the visual order.
