Actually, I find many, many sites accessible for shopping, though some aren't. The one extra little wrinkle I am noticing lately is that some sites have a place marked "go_button" or something similar to that, for searching or submitting, and this go_button does not have any link to it. Very frustrating, as usually the rest of the site is perfectly accessible. However, I am able to do a lot of shopping online; I do, however, have concerns that if the Java script issue for linux isn't soon addressed, much of my shopping will eventuallly be impossible. It's not that I'm whining and wishing somebody else would do it; if I had the knowledge and skills, I would definitely be working on this problem, and I really hope that somebody is trying to do so. -- Cheryl
