If you can see the screen you can tab (very quickly) I would like to add that a 'skip to main content' link is not exclusively in the realm of access for visually impaired people. If the screen of the device used for 'surfing' is very small and the list of links very large, then a skip-link suddenly becomes a lifesaver. This may not fall fully in the realm of "accessibility for the disabled" but also in the "accessibility for devices upon where 15 links constitute 3-4 full screens" In addition .. may I, in the name of accessibility, request that we adopt the normal rules of quoting for this list ? -- - Tina Holmboe Greytower Technologies tina@greytower.net http://www.greytower.net/ [+46] 0708 557 905
