I don't think you understood my original post. The document in
question is not a script, it is an HTML document. I am not concerned
about the CSS, I know it works for CSS compliant browsers. I am
wondering about screen readers and how they might speak the rendered
source.
Please note I asked for readers to _listen_ to the page, not read it.
