coupla typos: "The Wave indicates the present..." should be "presence" "...as you read Wave output you should every cell..." should be "read every cell..." A minor point is that the "Welcome from our chairman" leads (annoyingly, frustratingly) nowhere. Even if you just linked to a .gif of a letter from the chairman to illustrate that such practice doesn't qualify... I didn't gather from the tutorial that the scrolling price list might be a bummer and I am confused by the reading order not being "fixed" by WAVE in the example of the tutorial but is shown fixed in the tutorial proper. I think this little piece of software is *OUTSTANDING* and would be extremely useful in the real world wherein it has addressed by far the overwhelming majority of the actual problems encountered by blind folks trying to use the Web. By not trying to assess every guideline/checkpoint it attends beautifully to those that matter most. It should be widely disseminated on its own without being hidden away in a list of tools. I hope that it will not suffer the fate of Bobby (and in fact most software, including especially text editors) and become "feature-burdened" to death. I don't mean that to minimize Bobby but WAVE is essential *AS IS*. -- Love. ACCESSIBILITY IS RIGHT - NOT PRIVILEGE http://dicomp.pair.com
