the number of times i bollock people for this is ridiculous ... "oh no-one
uses lynx anymore" ... but start mentioning accessibility directives and
(gasp) laws, the light is usually seen reasonably quickly.

<tip type="accessibility">
testing sites in text based browsers is both good practice and good
manners - once you've tested your graphics, imagemaps and dhtml to hell and
back in every graphical browser known to man, try it in lynx or links ...
you may in fact get the fright of your life!
