As I started this thread by asking for feedback on the website Steve has created for me with my input, perhaps I should offer the last word? As far as I am concerned, Steve has done his best to create a website that is accessible to "most" situations. The fact that people choose to use older versions of Windows and Internet Explorer, or the limited capabilities of note-taker browsers, isn't Steve's responsibility. Our objective is to make the site usable and provide a purpose, and it complies in both instances. So we don't clutter the list with unnecessary traffic, please feel free to drop me a line off list if you are having specific difficulties, and I can then liaise with Steve to resolve the problem as best as possible. Thanks, and a happy new year to you all.

But if it was, I'm sure it would work with it.

Or any other screen reader for that matter? Try asking the manufacturers for that.

In other words, xp and note taker users will likely not change, just because something is not working. They will either mobilise it, or will find a new resource. But at the end of the day, its not our choice, how sites are layed out. ----- Original Message ----- From: christopher hallsworth <challsworth2@xxxxxxxxxx To: "access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Thursday, 1 January 2015 7:02 am Subject: [access-uk] Re: Jackie's website Sorry but have to agree here.

But to be honest, XP isn't a priority. Microsoft don't support it any more, Freedom Sci don't support it, GW don't support it, so I wouldn't lose sleep over it.
