Well, actually a lot of them are from following User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (despite teh fact that is only a draft at the moment, it is reasonably stable and a lot of the general principles are clear). This also implements features in Jaws that have long been available in other browsers, but designers have not made use of in coding because of a perception that nearly all accessibility is about people who are blind, and nearly all those people use jaws, and getting that far is near enough... (to fairly brutally over-simplify the case) But the improvements look like very good ones. And I guess that helps answer Charles Munat's question about how widely longdesc is implemented. cheers Chaals On Sat, 19 Jan 2002, David Poehlman wrote: This new release has lots of enhancements for using ie which stemmed largely from following wcag 1.0 it can be retrieved and read about from: http://www.freedomscientific.com Hands-On Technolog(eye)s touching the internet mailto:poehlman1@home.com voice: 301.949.7599 http://members.home.com/poehlman1/ -- Charles McCathieNevile http://www.w3.org/People/Charles phone: +61 409 134 136 W3C Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI fax: +1 617 258 5999 Location: 21 Mitchell street FOOTSCRAY Vic 3011, Australia (or W3C INRIA, Route des Lucioles, BP 93, 06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, France)
