Hi All I am putting together an RSS aggregator as part of a larger project. 1) Item titles (headlines) are links; should I use the title attribute of the link (<a...> as oppposed to <link...>) to contain a statement like: "full text of [headline]"? 2) Items will be able to classified/archived/etc.; once an operation has been perfomed on an item, such as setting the archive flag in the database, I was planning to return to that item's location in the document using an anchor. Would using a large number of anchors (one per item in a page which could contain many items) cause any problems with screen readers or other AT? It's a pity that RSS doesn't have a per-channel or even per-item element giving accessibility data for the target page. I suppose that the later (RDF) versions could incorporate this in some way, but I guess I'm just dreaming now <wink/>.
