Hallo Mister Bohman, At first I want to apologize that my English is not so good. I hope you can understand this mail. I am a beginning Webdesigner and only intend to make accessible webpages. My first website www.hoehnermusikfan.net a fansite of the german band H=F6hner (means chickens), is already twice tested by blind people with braille-computers They mailed me that everything was to be read and the links could be followed very easily. Most of the 500 links are contained in sentences. I got many reactions that my site is very comic. Also.. ist that what you mean when you say accessible sites don't need to be boring or ugly. Is it perhaps so that a good webmaster must not have only the programmingtechniques to make a site, but also must be a creative person to make a site funny And perhaps the creativity is more important than the first? And that is the reason that many sites are well programmed but very borring? Is creativity to learn or is it only a talent you have or not? Plaese, can you also mail me what the tag is in xhtml when I want that a link also can be followed by keyboardusers. I have he book "Beginning xhtml", advised on the w3c-site but I don't quite understand page 139/140 about area-attributes. Then I can also make the forms in this site accessible for disabled people.20 I hope you can help me and also mail me of it is necessary to to create a make-over of the already mentioned fansite. Kind regards of the Netherlands Ineke van der Maat
