Hi George, Ah, but Google are still getting away with it. By the way, if you want to sign a petition against this, which is up and running already, please go to http://www.blindwebaccess.com. Google don't have an accessible alternative either, and don't look like they are going to do it any time soon. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.
