Contrary to popular belief, 'Skip navigation' will be completely hidden
to the majority of screen-readers and voice browsers (rumour has it that
the very latest update will allow JFW to see it, but not older versions,
and no others).

Even if the class "hide" is only defined in stylesheets with
media="screen, projection"?

I thaught that a voice browser would look after stylesheets with
media="aural". And then "hide" would be not defined and there would be
no reason for omitting the "skip navigation".

Alex.

There's only one (Linux-based) browser that will do so; the current
mainstream products do not.

The standard way of hiding the text component of a link from visual
browsers so that it's only processed by 'assistive technology' products
is to make use of the alternative text on a 1-pixel image.

Thanks,

John.

Throw the lucky 7's if you need to e-mail me.

Thanks for all the assistance.

It's great to have access to so much knowledge. Hopefully, once I've got a
few more sites under my mouse I'll be able to return the favour to
someone.

Cheers,

Johnno.
