Thanks John! Yes, it was a deliberate decision not to use them. If that
and not including default text in text boxes makes my site "incompliant", oh
well! I'd rather it was accessible and usable than compliant.

But, seriously, haven't we killed accesskeys yet? John, maybe you need to
launch a site killaccesskeys.com or accesskeys-are-dead-buried-and-gone.com.

Cheers,
