NVDA will ignore that list as if it was not there. |

Yes, apologies for confusing statement. :)
In absence of any other alternative, yes. I find that these days definition lists are used as lists because of visual layout. Functionally, however, they should be lists of term/definition pairs.
Both JAWS and Window-eyes consider definition lists to be just like regular lists; nav keys, therefore, act accordingly.
With CSS you can make definition lists look anything you want. Without CSS, however, the definition is aligned to the right of its term. So I don't tink they are comparable to paragraphs.
If that's what it takes... |
