Hi,
This example shows how important it can be to include quotes around attribute values. The "/" in unquoted attributes are confusing the parser.
The first is the "text/css" in here:-
<LINK href="Webmaster Survey_files/Forms.css" type=text/css rel=stylesheet>
All the best,

When I transfered the file to another computer to upload outside the firewall, I again opened it in DW and DW removed all the double quotes leaving me with [id=value]. Must be a setting in DW? Are they needed for the [id= ] attribute?

Hi:
Does anyone have any statistics about how many people
with disabilities as a percentage of the general
population are using the web, per disability type, and
hopefuly by country?
We are trying to deploy a general purpose web site
that will include accessibility support, and there is
a specific section in the site dedicated to people
with visual impairments.
We are trying to do some capacity planning, have some
estimates of the general traffic, but have no clue on
what would be the percentage of people with visual
impairments.
Any link or info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrei

Here in the UK the Royal National Institute of the Blind quote the following
figures as of March 1997.
