Re: [Bulk] Re: 3rd call: CSS2: howto disable audio?

Boris,

that's my point....

whereas image and text can be hidden independently, one cannot 'hide'  
audio, video or other files by type.

this seems to be counter-intuitive, and a resolution by file type  
seems feasible or possibly even near-trivial.

Is there a good reason CSS does not cover this issue?

No one has so far provided a 'good' reason why img alone should be  
distinct from text.
this appears to me at least to be an historical artefact.

regards

Jonathan Chetwynd

The same issue applies to visual plug-ins (Flash, SVG, etc).  It's  
not audio-specific.
