The language designation should be part of the html tag preceding the head tag as follows: James Pickering Tucson, Arizona (LMS steam railway enthusiast) All Web pages Accessible to People with Disabilities Tools for Web Page Authors http://www.brazilcacticult.org/wf.htm Practical Italic Writing http://www.brazilcacticult.org/corsiva.htm Brazilian Cacti in Cultivation http://www.brazilcacticult.org/
