Apropos the subject line, what's a "4.3"? > Moving on to checkpoint 4.3 - > Assure that technologies required to render the content are listed and > widely available -- OR -- Use widely available technologies to render > content, and list the technologies that are required [level 2 guideline] A terrible idea. Some ancient HTML techniques, like <a rel> or <a type>, are virtually unsupported. And now we're going to limit what future technologies people can use? Why not just de-invent the Web? In any event, for W3C technologies, we elsewhere require valid code. If it's in the spec, *you may use it*, and it is not your problem that IE6 still has 90% market share and nobody has a user agent that supports it. Or, more relevantly to this esteemed Working Group's history, it is not relevant that the heavily-favoured Jaws program does not support it. -- Joe Clark | joeclark@joeclark.org Author, _Building Accessible Websites_ <http://joeclark.org/access/> | <http://joeclark.org/book/>Received on Thursday, 20 November 2003 12:32:03 GMT
