I don't recommend Home Page Reader to blind people -- nor do I _not_ recommend it. I am not qualified to recommend assistive technology tools to people with disabilities, and so I steer far clear of doing so. However, what I _am_ qualified to do is to tell web developers which tools will help improve their web site, and HPR is an invaluable aid in that respect if used correctly, and that is the audience for whom I am recommending the product. --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@reef.com> Technical Developer Liaison Reef North America Accessibility - W3C - Integrator Network ________________________________________ BUSINESS IS DYNAMIC.
