-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 Actually, I was extremely disappointed in Bookshare's markup of these books. In fact, they claim to have DAISY materials up there and none of the O'Reilley books work with DAISY and they even say so on the website. When I download the DAISY version of the O'Reilley books, I have to open up the HTML part and from what I've experienced in the past, I had no links to navigte to. If I were in IE or Firefox, I could use the Window-Eyes' H command to jump from one header to the next but that's hardly what I call good navigation. I agree; the online services of Safari don't allow for any offline reading so I guess there's a trade off. I have beaten this drumb enough times with no results, but I really wish Bookshare could improve the DAISY markup of the O'Reilly collection. Also, someone asked if the entire collection was on Bookshare. I don't think so and the reason I say that is I was referred to a book on Win 2000 securety one time Nd I could *NOT* find it on Bookshare and it had been touted as an O'Reilley book. So I dunno for sure.
