Markdown. Hlisting-proposal - Microformats. This document represents a draft microformat specification. Although drafts are somewhat mature in the development process, the stability of this document cannot be guaranteed, and implementers should be prepared to keep abreast of future developments and changes. Watch this wiki page, or follow discussions on the #microformats Freenode IRC channel to stay up-to-date. hListing is a proposal for an open, distributed listings (UK English: small-ads; classifieds) format suitable for embedding in (X)HTML, Atom, RSS, and arbitrary XML. hListing would be one of several microformats open standards.

With Flash Player 6, Macromedia introduced for Netscape and Mac OS X (previously it was supported only for Windows). In the process, this also gave developers a way to completely hide Flash from older screen readers and the issues they can have with it. In fact, when Flash is purely used as eye candy, it's wise to remove it from the flow of the screen reader's page so that they don't have to listen to .
