E Excellent! Thanks, Aaron. So now it's down to JAWS... And maybe it has some keystroke I haven't come across yet (please tell me, someone!). Do HPR and Window-Eyes indicate somehow that such additional information is available? Or does the user just have to think, "Hay, I wonder if this one has a title attribute"?
