You begin to see what > was nice about N3M2 "A screen reader" here tends to mean "Jaws." The problem, at any rate, is a *user agent* problem. It's not the author's problem. It is up to screen-reader manufacturers to either improve their default handling of letter-number combinations or allow users to adjust such handling. WAI should not write any portion of WCAG 2.0 around the bugs of Jaws or any other product. That's one of 1.0's many failings. -- Joe Clark | joeclark@joeclark.org Author, _Building Accessible Websites_ <http://joeclark.org/access/> | <http://joeclark.org/book/>
