Positioning text outside the visual viewport with CSS specifically targets screen reader users and people whose user agent does not support CSS. The response states: "without burdening the user who reads the link in context with repetitive information." When a screen reader user reads text in context on a page using the CSS technique for positioning text off-screen, the extra information is announced to them. The second paragraph states that's particularly bad for screen readers, yet the technique does exactly that. Gez -- _____________________________ Supplement your vitamins http://juicystudio.com
