I have really been struggling with "Constructing Accessible Websites" by Jim
Thatcher, Cynthia Waddell, Shawn Lawton Henry, Sarah Swierenga, Mark Urban,
Michael Burks, Paul Bohman, Publisher: APress; Reprint edition (July 14,
2003) -- not the content, just the print. It is really small, the soft
cover book is an odd size and heavy. It is hard to read with a magnifying
glass.

Is there an accessible form of this text in HTML or some other coded
character format? Once I get a such a copy, I can civilize it myself with
style sheets.

Thank You,

There sure is. Send me your snail mail address and I will send the CD.

BTW - sorry about that font size. I lost that argument. Take a look at the
great font size in Maximum Accessibility, by my friends Sharron Rush and
John Slatin.

Dear Mr. Dick,

Please send me your address and a confirmation that you have a disability,
and I will send you an accessible electronic version.

Sincerely,

Mike Burks
