I'm also a Dutchman. The spell checker does work ;-)

When I'm viewing your page with Firefox with a window of 800x600 px, I
miss the subjects "Kleur vast menu" and "Klear los menu".

Other than that, the page and lay-out looks good.
Keep up the good work.

Yeah I know the menu is to big for 800X600. I'm thinking about losing
the "Favoriete Links" part and sowing it somewhere else in the site.

Bit strange writing in English when I know you're Dutch :D

Bedankt voor de reactie trouwens, zou ik bijna vergeten.

Well, there are some South Africans too in this NG, they know a little
Dutch.

Hello,
Just to let you know your spell checker does not work. In your sentence
where you said, "I was wondering I've somebody could check my site at
http://www.test.xw3b.nl it should be if not I've

You mean a grammar checker instead of a spell checker :o)

Hmm I'll better start looking for a grammar checker then :).
That is a strange typo I must say, it doesn't make any sense to me now
that I read it again.

Ok I've used the JavaScript fix, but I was in the understanding that
<abbr> and <acronym> where used for screen readers so that they wouldn't
hear the word "HTML" cause that would sound, well, strange and
wouldn't make any sense and that screen readers read the code so it
doesn't matter if IE supports it or not.
Is that a misunderstanding on my part?

Does anybody know a good (free/trial) screen reader that I could use to
check the usability of my site?

Ah, but many (please use the correct technical term, which is...) "talky
browsy thingies" use IE as the underlying base and then just read out
whatever IE shows on screen.
