Seeing eye to eye

Mirror Eyes

New Antipasto entry: None in the oven.

waferbaby encourages us to open our eyes and see.

"Macromedia to aid the disabled online": It's all very well. I hope they are truly doing what they claim they will do. The most recent demo of Dreamweaver 4 accessibility features that I witnessed had an incorrect default doctype, and the demonstrator was not practising liquid design principles. We saw none of the CSS.

A year and a half ago at a free Macromedia demonstration - where most of the audience were not well-versed in Web design - a presenter said to avoid using CSS because it was not supported properly across browsers. He taught font tags. I could have biffed the guy. I really, really could have.

Having said all that, I'm glad that the issue of accessibility is being taken seriously.
