RE: SC 2.4.6 wording

Thanks, Loretta. I think the approach makes sense, but I think "some
order" will get us into trouble.

But maybe we can flip it around? How does this sound?


<proposed>
When a navigational sequence is conveyed through presentation,
components receive focus  in an order  that follows the relationships
and sequences conveyed through  the presentation.
</proposed>

Hmm. I wonder if this is already covered under 1.3.1? (The uber-SC...)

Subject: SC 2.4.6 wording



Sean raised a number of issues of interpretation with our current
wording of SC 2.4.6:

<current>When a Web page is navigated sequentially, components receive
focus in an order that follows relationships and sequences in the
content. </current>

I thought I'd see whether we could clarify things by borrowing some of
the language of SC 1.3.1:

<proposal>
When a Web page is navigated sequentially, components receive focus in
some order that follows relationships conveyed through presentation .
</proposal>


Is this any better?
