Lee, The solution is in: > The questions appear to be marked up as h2 but are not marked up as > hyperlinks (anchors) and hence cannot be tabbed to. Nor do they come > up in a link-list drawn up by a screen reader. The text marked up as heading is also meant to be clickable, right? Then mark it up as an anchor as well and use CSS if you wish to control its appearance as you please. That way it can be tabbed to and will be keyboard-operable. The same functionality - expand and collapse should work when the FAQ is operated with the keyboard. The permalinks will be unnecessary then. Now they only display the answer to the FAQ right? Or is there any other functionality associated? Retain the explanation and links for expand all / collapse all. Sailesh Panchang Senior Accessibility Engineer Deque Systems Inc.

I'd like to fix it for both the SW FAQ and the SPARQL FAQ, but don't have enough experience on my own to be confident in getting it right. many thanks, Lee Sailesh Panchang wrote: > Refer to Semantic Web FAQ page at > http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/SW-FAQ > > The instructions at the beginning of the FAQ suggest that the questions may > be expanded to reveal the answers.
