Elaine,

I'm not sure what it is that I'm suppose to be seeing when I connect to the
site. Here is what Jaws 4.5 with IE 5.5 and Windows 2000 saw:
"Untitled
List of 4 items
. cr-webapps/workorders
work orders
. cr-webapps/printshop
print shop
. cr-webapps/businesscards
business cards
. publication review
list end"

I feel like that I'm missing something with the screen reader. What do you
think.

> I saw the recent links to cinnamon.nl, and their navigation element seemed
perfect for a couple of things that I'm working on right now. but it occurred
to me yesterday that I wasn't sure if a navigation element created this way
would be "visible" to screen readers. on one of the projects, it's not that
big a deal, but on the other, it's a *very* big deal. (as in, I'm thinking
about using it for the college's main site.)
