List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi I'm finding this thread very interesting. I have to admit, I find navigating the www easier under the Windows platform. I've got a project about to be launched that involves Speakup and such issues are very relevant. As html offers a number of techniques to answer multiple choice questions I'd appreciate constructive feedback. Currently, there's a question that is similar to the following "Where do you use Linux?" there are about 6 choices offered, each of which have a check box. I've used a simple tag for these questions and wondered if this was the best way in dealing with such multiple choice questions?
