An accessible content authoring tool in Flash?

[Tenney Julian]

Hi,

Thanks for the comments. The tabbing works that way so that the controls
are presented in a logical order. If you are on a page, most likely the
control you want first is 'next page' and don't want to tab through the
help, TOC, previous page buttons before you get to it.

I'm intereseted in the fluid project having read a little about the
aims. What is the best way of staying abreat of development, or getting
involved?

Thanks,

Julian

This is very interesting, John. Thanks for sending it around. I noticed
that some of the actions seem different than what I would expect, such
as tabbing from right to left on the navigation bar, rather than left to
right. Is this a UK convention?
