Let's hope *not*! As I said in my previous message, if I can't navigate a
page, I'll get that service somewhere else. And even in spite of the
gratuitous use of Javascript, most pages I go to I can at least navigate
well enough to use them, buy stuff, and get information. True, a lot of
this is a pain and time-consuming (alt tags, people, don't forget the alt
tags! Especially on graphical links!), but text-based browsers still work
and work well.
