I'm using this at present:
<p title="Publication date" >[28/09/2005 15:00]</p>
Works fine on screen, but Fangs/Jaws just reads it as "left bracket
twenty-eight slash zero slash two thousand five fifteen colon zero right
bracket" Really it needs something more to indicate that it _is_ a
date.
The [...] brackets would be better done with CSS, :before and content: ,
but the boss wants it to work under IE too. The site is firmly UK
based, so d/m/y is necessary and won't be getting internationalised.
So, what's the best markup for representing a date, with good
accessibility to screen readers?
