Al, your menu system doesn't show the sub-menu items, and leaves visual
artefacts on the screen which obscures content when tabbing backwards
through the list.

There is nothing obsessive or subject about that.

A menu system cannot be described as WAI priority three compliant until
after it is implemented because at least one of the criteria is
concerned with the link text (run your home page through a validator
for an example of how to fail at priority one for this very reason).

On a side note I personally found Ron's page quite usable with a
keyboard.


kind regards.
