[WSG] using skip links

2009-05-12 Thread Ben Lau
Hi all,

I am to build templates for a page, and below is a pseudo example of my code
order:

-skip to #content-
[div#navigation]
a name=content/a
[h1]
[div#promotion]
[div.content]

I've always believed my h1 should always come after the 'content' anchor (or
within a #content div), so when screen reader skips my navigation to the
content, they're able to read the h1 as well. Ideally I'd like to connect
the h1 and div.content together, however I'm stuck with the div#promotion in
between as I need to adhere to the visual layout.

I was thinking of inserting another skip link to .content (and add another
anchor name before it), so it'll read as:

-skip to #pageContent-
[div#navigation]
a name=pageContent/a
[h1]
-skip promotion to #content-
[div#promotion]
a name=content/a
[div.content]

My question is, is it bad to have a skip link right after you've skipped
from the top?
(hope I've explained it well...)

Thanks,
Ben

 Hi all,
 I'm wondering if its possible to embed Flash into HTML, using only HTML (no
 javascript) and for this to be keyboard accessible (HTML and Flash content
 usable by keyboard, no keyboard trap problems, for say A-grade list at
 http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/articles/gbs/)

 Test page: http://reb.net.nz/greed/index2.html

 Seems to be fine in IE, but in Firefox you cannot get keyboard focus onto
 the Flash without using the mouse.

 Just spotted
 http://blogs.adobe.com/accessibility/2009/04/firefox_focus_and_actual_links_1.html
  but
 this sounds as if it relies on the actionscript within the Flash itself
 being written in a particular way, and possibly on the javascript used to
 embed the flash into the HTML page.

 Thanks,
 Rebecca
