Suppress Link Titles

Question

Is there any way to suppress the pop-up titles on links, yet still keep them on the page for the visually impaired?

Answer 1

...it possibly wouldn't be ideal, but you could always try, in place of a title attribute in the , a within the tags:

/* screen.css */

a   { }

a span.titleText {
    display: none;
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 1.2em;
    left: 0;
}

a:hover span.titleText,
a:active span.titleText,
a:focus span.titleText {
    display: block;
}

/* audio.css */

a span {
    display: inline; /* or whatever the relevant attribute would 
                        be in an audio stylesheet. */
}

    
    



    This is the titleThis is the link

I don't, however, suggest it as a particularly practical solution. And I'm fairly certain it wouldn't validate. If I knew JS I'd suggest something more workable, but even then I'm not convinced it would work.
