Actually, very much in line with your desire for increased granularity, I intend to add the following note to this checkpoint (and a similar one about style sheets later on): <BLOCKQUOTE> Scripts and applets may provide very useful functionality, not all of which causes accessibility problems. Developers should not consider that the user's ability to turn off scripts is an effective way to improve content accessibility; turning off scripts means losing the benefits they offer. Instead, developers should provide users with finer control over user agent or content behavior known to raise accessibility barriers. The user should only have to turn off scripts as a last resort. </BLOCKQUOTE> > 3. Checkpoint 4.11: Can we using "talking rate" instead of "playback > rate". Playback doesn't seem to be the right term for synthesized speech. I agree with David's suggestion of "speech rate". > 4. Checkpoint 5.4: Add onChangeEvent to example in the note Ok. > 5. Checkpoint 9.5 "Use make available" terminology, instead of query? Done. Thanks Jon, _ Ian -- Ian Jacobs (jacobs@w3.org) http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs Tel: +1 831 457-2842 Cell: +1 917 450-8783
