Accessibility question
I will soon be moving my fanfic to Archive of Our Own, and to a Dreamwidth fic-site. When moving the fics, I'd like to ensure that my code is accessible for screen-readers. I know some things, but have questions about others. I asked the questions in a post at my Studio, but have had no responses; apparently no one in my reading circle uses a screen-reader.
If you do, I'd appreciate it if you could drop by and educate me. Or perhaps point me toward a site that has the answers. Feel free to pass the link on to anyone who might know the answers. After I've learned what I need to know, I'll make a new post to share with my friends, and anyone else who needs or wants the information.
Thank you.

no subject
Thank you. I thought "CSS" by definition had to affect an entire page; I regarded <span style="font-style: italic"> as a 'tag' rather than 'CSS'. Maybe re-reading the comments will make a little more sense, now.
Getting into the technical details of how to do that is a little bit complicated unless you are sure it's something you want to try, but you absolutely can do it.
No; I'm happy just making very minor changes in my posts. Italics, bold, and blockquote are about all I need. (With the proviso that I'm trying to be sure I make those semantically accessible for screen-readers.)
