OK. MSNBC in screen layout:

yes, thanks.  That's a practical application of the sort I was wondering
about.  Jerry says it also reorganizes the way something like a bunch of
global navigation links will appear on the page, and I think that's
interesting, and wonder what difference it will make with Jaws. After 
all,
those links are still going to be in tab order, one way or the other. 
They
just won't take up ten or fifteen screens vertically before you get to 
the
main body of the page, as is the usual with the default on most Web 
pages I
visit frequently.

Hi,
As I see it, it comes down to one's personal preference.  There are 
times
when I want screen layout, and times that I want simple layout.  I might
want screen layout in a situation where I'm looking at flight 
itineraries at
travelocity.com, for example.   In a situation like that, I'm comparing 
a
variety of flights offered by different airlines, each of which might 
have
the same departure times, but varying numbers of layovers and so on.  I 
find
that screen layout lets me compare them at a glance by taking in a row 
at a
time.  If I have to do that by looking at a cell at a time, I can lose
perspective.  I don't know if that makes sense to you, but to me it 
seems
analogous to a visual comparison when I can quickly peruse each row 
simply
by pressing the down arrow and having the row read instantly.

Tom
