Hi Ricardo: I couldn't agree with you more. It's nice to know one can take about 20 steps to do something that should take 2 or 3.
! I'm planning to take this up with my Vo trainer. She's usually pretty good about writing to accessibility about things she encounters in our sessions. The neat thing is she is going to continue working with me, because our sessions have become more of an ideas exchange, and she learns from the little things I bring in to learn about. So, it's turned into a good resource for both of us. Take care On Mar 23, 2011, at 3:45 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Wow! > > That is way, way, too much work to select content from a web page.
