Success Criteria 4.1.1 requires the web unit be parsed unambiguously. The conformance section specifies that all content, including secondary resources, must be included for conformance. So it seems that if your CSS does not validate then you'll fail SC 4.1.1 (level 1). Here's an example file that includes an invalid CSS (missing a semicolon). http://checker.atrc.utoronto.ca/docs/file4.html http://checker.atrc.utoronto.ca/docs/test1.css The W3C's validator says regarding the example file: "your CSS style sheet needs a correct document parse tree". I'm just checking with the group on this because invalid CSS is a fairly common problem yet doesn't affect accessibility very much. Do stylesheets need to be valid for level 1 conformance?
