No. Why would I? I'm responding to the current post and thread.

If you want any clients it is? It is the number one used browser in the
world. You may not like it, but you have to write with a consideration
for it.
It's a CSS support issue, the layout

Are you blind? I ask that only because you mention screen reading
software and it answers a few questions.
Others have mentioned basic design elements, and silly me, I thought
you were asking a design question. I'm a programer, and even a
programmer can tell that you have basic unaddressed design issues. Not
to mention a thin skin that will get you in trouble on usenet! That
*will* happen when someone brings up your posting style (don't bottom
post for starts, particularly in a technical group).
BTW. You can make a fully compliant site that isn't butt ugly. Try this:
<URL: http://alistapart.com/ />
Or look at Toby's work.
