There are two things that I am looking for Section C - good design practices ???? prop: Ensure that pop-up windows or changes of window are notified to the user before they occur. Non-visual users can be surprised, and thoroughly disoriented, to find they are not where they expected to be. Visual users too are often disoriented by the sudden appearance of pop-up windows, or having a page opened in a new window and not being able to go back to where they have been. P2? P3? This had been discussed and I thought it was in there. Also, section a - ensuring all things degrade Dynamic pages: Guideline: Where important information is provided in a dynamic object (for example a javascript calculator) ensure that there is adequate notification that the object is dynamic. technique: In the calculator example this may mean having a text box which is changed, and whose default value is 'on calculation your result will appear here'. Rationale: Assistive Technologies such as screen readers can read text which has changed, but the user needs to know where the dynamic object is before they can re-read it. Users will not necessarily know that a change has occurred. Charles McCNReceived on Tuesday, 22 September 1998 21:13:42 GMT
