Simple Test of the Accesibility of CSS Generated Content

The attached file is a very simple test of screen-reader support for 
CSS-generated content, defined using the following syntax:

  p:before { content: "You passed, you did not " }

so that, if rendered aurally by a screen reader, the CSS-generated 
text ("You passed, you did not "), in conjunction with the first 
word of the paragraph, ("FAIL!"), informs the tester whether the 
CSS-generated content is available to the tester.  otherwise, the aural 
rendering of the sole paragraph on the page will begin: "FAIL!".

Note that the expected result -- even with User Agents that support CSS 
generated content -- is that the attached document will fail an aural 
test, as the generated content is not available to the screen reader via
the DOM, nor are most stand-alone screen readers CSS-aware.  CSS-generated
text is written directly to the screen, and hence is unavailable to the 
Assistive Technology.
