On the contrary, CC/PP, when used correctly, talks in terms of capabilities and preferences, which are user-centric, rather than just sending a browser or platform identifier. This means that problems such as storing a database of capabilities for future browsers are solved. CC/PP, correctly applied, should also solve the problem of non-identifcation of assistive technology (e.g. JAWS), since JAWS' capabilities _should_ be identified within a CC/PP framework. --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@idyllmtn.com> http://kynn.com Chief Technologist, Idyll Mountain http://idyllmtn.com Web Accessibility Expert-for-hire http://kynn.com/resume January Web Accessibility eCourse http://kynn.com/+d201Received on Wednesday, 19 December 2001 14:53:27 GMT
