Re: screen reader headings lists

Which browsers allow you to bring up a list of headings in the
page, if you don't have any screenreader?

As far as I can tell, Firefox can do it with the UIUC add-on.
Opera can navigate from header to header but can't give you a
list. Can any of the other browsers?

This comes up for me fairly frequently, actually, because if I am
posting on a blog site or someplace else where I don't control
the greater page framework, but I want to put headers within my
particular post, I want to know what is the level of header
directly above my post, so I can put the right levels within my
own text. I haven't figured out a way to do it outside of
Firefox.
