Hello,

How can one make div elements show on the same line without having spaces
for a screen reader?

I have characters all in their own div and I need them to look like words
and not spaced out letters.

<div>t</div><div>h</div><div>e</div>

This shows:

T

H

E

To a screen reader. Using display: inline makes it a little better with:

T h e

But that still isn't:

The



How can I make multiple divs show as one word?

Thank you,
