If ever there was an example of <i>&quot;Look what clever javascript tricks I can do!&quot;</i> trumping usability, that article was it. Who the feck thought it was a good idea to?...<p>periodically have the text you were reading fade out and be overlaid with images. Amd have the captions for those images be off the bottom of the screen [on my MacBook Air 11&quot;] but, when you scroll down to read them, the image fases away and dumps you back into the text again. Also often the end of a paragraph of text is off the bottom of the screen, but when you scroll it into view, the text fades out and an image fades in instead.<p>But well done, whoever it was. You&#x27;ve proven you know JavaScript. Now go off and study accessibility for a while!
