In the survey on 1.1 Andi pointed out two problems with 1.1.1 The "How to meet 1.1.1" document is not explicit about transcripts for pre-recorded audio content. It is only mentioned in "Additional information". You could interpret the technique "Providing a long description in another location with a link to it that is immediately adjacent to the non-text content" to cover transcripts but the technique does not use that as an example. Also 1.1.1 contains some language that sounds contradictory "If a short description can not serve the same purpose and present the same information", the first technique that must be used is "Providing short text alternatives for non-text content that serve the same purpose and present the same information". For the first one - an example was added to the named technique as suggested to make this clear. ' EXAMPLE 4: Transcript of an audio-only file There is a recording of a speech by Martin Luther King. Immediately adjacent to the audio file is a link to a transcript of the file. For the second - a new general technique was added to replace the one cited to eliminate the contradiction' Providing <http://trace.wisc.edu/wcag_wiki/index.php?title=Providing_short_text_altern atives_that_provides_a_brief_description_of_the_non-text_content> short text alternatives that provides a brief description of the non-text content Gregg ------------------------ Gregg C Vanderheiden Ph.D. Professor - Depts of Ind.
