I will definitely add a note to the article, and aim to write some more detailed accessibility stuff for future issues. The standards-based site versus non-standards-based site idea has already been done a while ago, on A List Apart, I thought, but I'm buggered if I can actually find the URL ;-( I'm pretty sure it was Sergio Villarreal who wrote it.

What I would do next issue is compare a standards based site v a non-standards based site so show how the code looks, what screen readers see and actually show how much trouble it is to mantain it.

Yup, you are a pretty much right - although it's not _that_ simple. But legislation does form an important part of it, especially with more court cases around web accessibility these days. I am wondering whether I should add something to this article, or just write a whole new article covering accessibility (or accessibility and law) basics....wow, there is a whole series we could do there. When Anna makes the ScrunchUp millions, she can take us on as full-time writers (joke ;-) ) Thanks Daniel. Yup, you are a pretty much right – although it’s not _that_ simple.
