Hi Scott,

This is really good.  I found the links to be much more accessible with 
Windows XP, Jaws, Internet Explorer 8, and my Braille display.  It is much 
easier to locate specific topics.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] As Promised: Online Manual Updates in Response to 
Your Requests


In this mini-update we've focused on navigation and not content, since 
better navigation was the top request from volunteers.

A before identify the browser and AT you are using as you report problems.

Please focus your comments to evaluating these navigation changes which 
changes include:

- New search feature on ToC page
  Caveat:  does not search only the OM, instead searches all of Bookshare 
Open Space

- Pipes removed from chapter links at the very top of every page

- Links in ToC at top of chapters 3 and 4 now link directly to child pages 
rather than simply to links further down the same page

- In Chapter 4 new links were added at the end of most child pages:

  "To the next Topic:  XXXXX"
   or
   "To the next Section:  XXXXX"

- Many non-accessible bullets removed and changed to bolded asterisks

Content changes include:

- "Pages under contruction" in chapter 4 "Proofread a Book" were reduced

- Glossary was greatly expanded

The online manual is here:
