How do you indicate something is a hyperlink?
The traditional cue for hyperlinks is blue text, like we're using here. And buttons, like their real-world counterparts, are rectangular, and have a 3-D appearance. These conventions provide the strongest perceived affordance of clickabilty and in early years we recommended that buttons and links follow these patterns.
Can screen readers read highlighted text?
A screen reader will detail every line as highlighted, which is distracting. While highlighting can be cleared using the “Clear Authorship Colors,” it is challenging to navigate to this button with a screen reader because there are so many buttons before it.
