Hi,
If you are a JAWS user, you can try Insert+Control+Enter. Make sure you
turn on the JAWS option that alerts you to the fact that there is a hover
if you have it turned off. JAWS will tell you if something on your page
changes. One way to try this out might be to have a block of text whose
visible property starts out as hidden and then when you hover, make it
change to displayed. I may not have the property values exactly right.
Sorry about that.

Hi all,
My web programming class is starting css.  I am wondering if I
can triger the a:hover event by arrowing over links, and if not,
how can I use the keyboard to do this?

Have a great day,
Alex
