Sounds like we are all in agreement that the best place to solve this is in the browser. So, where is the pressure on the browser developers? where are the regulations? where are the contracts from the federal gov asking the browsers to implement keyboard navigation. Is there a petition I can sign? Regarding the "interim solution", I still feel it is more effective and efficient to help the end user install the plug-ins. Users all seem to be able (with or without assistance) to download PDF viewers, etc. And besides, it is usually the plug-ins and extensions approach that is a precursor to it being eventually part of the browser. Think of them as reference implementations. as an example, Sync was a Firefox extension that is now integrated into the browser. If you all want to continue to lobby for skip links, go ahead, but it sure hasn't gotten us very far over the last decade. ____________________________________________ Regards, Phill Jenkins,
