Thanks Julian, These would be good. I use a screen reader and have been for almost 20 years and can tell you that refreshing pages are really troublesome for all but the most current of jaws which has the facility to turn off refreshing. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Julian Voelcker" <asp@tvw.net> To: <w3c-wai-ig@w3.org> Sent: Friday, January 17, 2003 7:41 AM Subject: Re: Frames and Accessibility Hi David, On Fri, 17 Jan 2003 07:00:28 -0500, David Poehlman wrote: > your third approach is the best if you can manage it and OK, I can do that in a number of places, although there is one menu with about 10 options on it that would be too difficult to duplicate.

I think that I will do this for the non framed 'chat' facility - the last thing we need is to have the whole page refreshing every five seconds! Actually we have been thinking of adding a manual refresh button to the framed version because we have been having problems with some ISPs caches. Cheers, Julian Voelcker
