Re: tool to show me what is in focus?

Hi Amanda,

A low-tech approach? With both IE6 under WinXP and IE8 under Win7, I
choose the High Contrast #1 Windows theme. Then I set IE's accessibility
formatting to "Ignore colors specified on webpage". Then I TAB through
the page and the focus lights up pretty well.

I hope that helps,
James
