The technique of creating "extra" lines within an infobox by adding XHTML breaks (i.e. <br />) to matching cells of a single XHTML row creates an accessibility problem, primarily for blind users. This page provides a description of the problem and suggestions for how to fix it. A project to find and fix instances of this problem is currently underway.
