Ah, It is action I said. main content if it is written that way should be a link, but it should be clearly bounded as a table of contents item. If however, you want to "go to main content" it should be a button. A subtle distinction but an important one for usability.

So why do you suggest "a main content button"? Links take users to content - so anything that takes the user to the main content of the page should surely be a link? The button wouldn't _do_ anything to the main content. -- David Dorward http://dorward.me.uk
