Hi, I am glad to see that we are not the only people who can disagree on this issue. The Danish approach to guidelines is very simple, we want to follow both html and wai guidelines. On the other hand we have a very special situation in Denmark. With only one screenreader, and a screenreader that supports WAI. In this situation it makes sense to try an influence Freedom Scientific to change the behavior of JFw, but we have to be 100 percent sure that we try to push Freedom in the right direction. My understanding of the previous mails is as follows: for the future use title because in general the title tag is used to supply information about the contents of different elements. The name is an older more or less outdated tag that should insure backwards compatibility. If this is correct, and I hope someone more knowledgable of html than I will give a clear anser on this, then we can ask Freedom to change the way Ie5 and JFW behaves when incountering frames with either title or name or both. One idea that would be in line with JFW would be to make it an option like many other things so the user can choose wich information should be spoken. Regards Claus Thoegersen
