Guideline 3 says: "Use markup and style sheets and do so properly. Mark up documents with the proper structural elements." http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10/#gl-structure-presentation And checkpoint 3.5 specifically says: "3.5 Use header elements to convey document structure and use them according to specification." > peepo uses it plenty. As the first remedy, they should put the <img> element that is intended to act as a main heading inside <h1> markup, e.g. <h1><img src="drivethru5/Res/pussy.gif" alt="The PEEPO Home Page" title="The PEEPO Home Page" class="tools" /></h1> (and drop the pointless and potentially risky <a>...</a> markup) at http://www.peepo.com/ . On other pages, the <h1> markup should surround other elements, of course. This should not harm in any way those people who only view the images. I think pages that aim at accessibility should be exemplary in accessibility, even if they are primarily intended for people with a specific disability. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
