That would be nonstandard behaviour, since in XHTML 1.0 the _id_ attribute can be applied to anything (in 1.1, apparently, you can't put _id_ on <html> itself). Every element can be an anchor. <http://fawny.org/blog/2003/07/?WAI-IG#id-h1> <http://www.annevankesteren.nl/archives/2003/10/08/styling-the-html-element> > > <a name="table1"></a> > > <table border="1" cellspacing="0" Just do <table id="table1"> and wait for screen readers to comply with standard HTML. Placing an anchor link as seen here is not wrong, but it is less "semantic," as they say. -- Joe Clark | joeclark@joeclark.org Author, _Building Accessible Websites_ <http://joeclark.org/access/> | <http://joeclark.org/book/>
