h1 tags and hiding the text - 5/12/2006 15:54:17
hi
i got recomended to use this code in another forum
<html>
<head>
<title>your title</title>
<style type="text/css" media="all">
h1 {display: none;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This will be invisible to normal browsers</h1>
...the rest of your code...
</body>
</html>
i've copied it onto every page on my site with one key phrase in the invisible bit.
is this wrong?

I'd say a better way of doing it would be to use this technique:http://wellstyled.com/css-replace-text-by-image.html I've used this a lot. The trouble with using display:none is that some screenreaders can't see the hidden thing. If you're purely using your <h1> tag to stuff keywords then that might be a good thing! However if you're using it as a proper title (with your key phrase in there) then you want it to work with images off or for screenreaders too.
