Sure. But I would suggest that it is a better idea to think of a future where styling information can be passed to the synthesiser, than to think of one where speech synthesisers don't allow customisation of any sort. There is a separate question of whether CSS is a good styling mechanism - for audio browsers I would suggest that it is a good approach, but what about Window-eyes, which is expected to work with all the different programs a user runs on their machine? (Actually IMHO if it's a good enough mechanism for MS Word and my IRC client it probably does make sense for screen readers too). cheers Chaals On Saturday, Jun 14, 2003, at 16:59 Europe/Zurich, David Poehlman wrote: > > in my experience with aural css, it only works with sapi complient > speech > synthesizers.
