aloha the first question to be asked is: 1. what screen reader are you using? (please provide not only name, but version number, as well - choose "Help" and then "About" to discern) the second question to be asked is: 2. did you change any of the screen reader's default settings? the third essential question is: 3. what browser are you using? (please provide not only name, but version number, as well - choose "Help" and then "About" to discern) using JAWS for Windows versions 3.x and 4.0 in conjunction with MSIE 5.5-SP1 or Lynx32 (version 2.8.4dev2), textual maps are handled without problem - could you please also try the following test pages, in which the MAP element is used to provide a navigation bar: http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/tests/navbar.html http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/tests/accesskey1.html http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/tests/accesskey3.html (the markup of the last 2 passes the W3C validator) - and report what you hear? when the MAP element does not contain graphics, JFW does not identify the links contained within the MAP as "image map links" (when the user-configurable setting "Say Link Type" is selected, which is the default setting) as it does when it encounters an image map comprised of IMG elements - for more information on JFW's HTML Options, consult: http://www.hicom.net/~oedipus/wai/ua/longdesc/jfw-html-options-20000223.html gregory.
