Issues Considered

Anchor Text rules resolved to some extent. This solves most cases[say 95% or more] but is not perfect.

Open Issues

Resolving anchor text names within a page so that resulting voice rules do not conflict. Also device a strategy make anchor texts phonetically different.
Analyse if it is required to make links which are not visible to human eye on the page ( in span and div ) ie which get visible on calling scripts should not be made voice enabled.
A computation intensive algorithm should not be devised as it will increase the loading time.
