Well this is according to my teacher but he said that is the way it
should be and he told us to use paragraph markers. Hth

The w3c says you have to put each link on a seperate line?  As someone
who writes some web content how is that possable?  Mind pointing out
where it says such a thing?

well, look at it this way. with window eyes and jaws they put each link
on one line each. with supernova it doesn't do that. see, it differs
even in windows. with lynx and elynx you look at it from a sorta sighted
perspective, with out the websites beeing all processed. Note according
to the w3c links should be on there own line! So the screen reader
forcing it to be so is just forcing it to look like the w3c says it
should look.  I personally like this feature quite well in windows and
would be happy to see it echoed here in lynx.  on 4/4/2005

char be a browser feature? It seems to me such functionality is the
responsibility of the assistive technology, not the browser.

Also, when you say "tab browsing," what does that mean? Is there some
unique definition of tab browsing in elinks?

If Linux can't solve your computing problem, you need a different
