Dear prof Coombs >I am looking for advice as to which software to write html would be the >best for a blind student using windows95 and a screen reader to use. I >want to teach html to some blind students, not college just high school. >Any suggestions? From my point of view: go for HoTMetaL Pro 4. from SoftQuad (http://www.softquad.com/products/pc-hmp4.htm) you can download a trial version for some 60 days I believe it is by far the best html editor I am aware of HoTMetal comes now with some interfaces to softbraille etc. so it became very accessible as a product HoTMetaL PRO 4.0 is a validating editor, that enables the generation of high quality HTML. Using the 'Check HTML' command one can verify that the markup in a document is correct and complete. Furthermore, HoTMetaL PRO has implemented a 'Check Accessibility' command which checks documents against a set of accessibility guidelines. good luck, Geert Bormans E-mail: Geert.Bormans@esat.kuleuven.ac.be
