None of that is going to work without JavaScript.

Would Javascript still be an issue when 4.0 comes out? I would think not, since even nowadays Javascript is supported on about 95% of the devices. I think that when in the far future when 4.0 sees daylight, every device supports JS. Of course some user might turn JS off, but in the modern world of internet that user might expect things not to work smoothly with JS turned off.

This revolution depends on the quality of the software but also on the correct structure of the text: heading, punctuation, presence of alternate attributes for images etc. are crucial for a good vocalization. Also a web site may have a nice look because of the use of appropriate two dimensional positioning with CSS but its standard linearization, for example, by suppressing any CSS and Javascript in the browser, can produce an incoherent succession of texts to be vocalized.

IMO it really isn't really an issue that this feature requires JS. I was just addressing Shayariel who said this wouldn't need JS, which it does.

The goal should be to present a functional experience to screen readers, not a full-function experience. This is the route being taken by almost all software these days. For your reading pleasure: http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/

This was a good starting point but was shelved for (IMO) a really dumb reason: http://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3-9457

phpBB would have been two years ahead of WordPress (which today has a very good implementation of the aria attribute) had this been implemented. Now it's two years behind...

As for multi-quote, the topic_review() function in includes/functions_posting.php should provide a clue for adding single page multi-quote capability to viewtopic.php.
