Hello, I encountered this article: http://www.standards-schmandards.com/index.php?2004/11/22/8-fangs-release-05 The author is developing a free screen reader emulation for Firefox. I don't know if this will ever be useful for people with disabilities, because it would have to interface with a speech synthesizer. But even if that doesn't happen it could still be a nice tool for developers to get a feel of how their website would appear to people who depend on text only without reverting to Lynx. The website has some other interesting articles about accessibility as well: http://www.standards-schmandards.com. It feels funny to forward articles from a domainname like that to a standards organization though :-) For you Americans out there: Happy thanksgiving & have some turkey for me tomorrow!
