I will explain the problem with the <acronym>-Tag: <acronym lang="en" title="Web Accessibility Initiative"> <span lang="de">WAI</span> </acronym> First the language-Attribute within the <acronym>-Tag tell that the title should in english, but after that the <span>-Tag switch the language to german for the <acronym>. Tested with Opera 8.50, now Opera doesn't display the tooltip with "Web Accessibility Initiative". If i remove the <span>-Tag in this constellation then Opera will display the tooltip again. And the tested screenreader from my visitor also doesn't switch the language, all is read in english.
