Accessible Home/Next/Prev links

Post by Russ »

In order to increase the accessibility of web sites, I often use the a head section e.g.

Code: Select all

<link title="Home" href="index.php" rel="Index" />
<link title="Section Home" href="sectionhome.php" rel="Section" />
<link title="Next page" href="next.php" rel="Next" />
<link title="Previous page" href="previous.php" rel="Prev" />
Where index.php is the home page, sectionhome.php is the current section home page and next.php is the next page in the menu sequence and previous.php is the previous page in the menu sequence.

Is it possible todo this? i.e. are there already keywords for this. I'm thinking of using this with the Ell-Nav menu?

If not it may be a good idea to impliment as a module as although IE doesn't have support for it many other browsers do and it is good for accessibility!

I may have found the answer to my own question, whilst not perfect or released, if your are interested please see the following topic:

http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 112.0.html

Are their any other ways of doing this?
