Yes. I am a visual user, but have problems from time to time withusing a mouse. So hiding things too much is annoying. (On the other hand, things come up in the tabbing order, so as long as there is a focus that is clearly visible I know I have hit a link and just need to check the status bar to find out what is going on. I guess that's less cool if you're using magnification. Any thoughts? chaals On Wed, 21 Mar 2001, Davey Leslie wrote: I wonder if hiding the "skip links" from graphic browsers--which I've done on a couple of sites with the invisible gif trick--is really a good idea. I'm starting to have second and third thoughts about it. What about folks who can't use a mouse? Isn't the "skip links" useful for them? Just wondering...
