Comment 44: Source: http://www.w3.org/mid/001f01c695f9$31b504e0$9288b23a@tkhcomputer (Issue ID: LC-1067) Relative vs absolute units: There should be a WCAG2 equivalent at Level 1 for this WCAG1 checkpoint. The ability to change the text size in a page is very important to people with vision impairments. The ability to resize tables according to the size of the screen is very important to people using PDAs Proposed Change: Create a new SC outlawing absolute units (I am happy to write this) ---------------------------- Response from Working Group: ---------------------------- Although resizing is primarily a user agent function, we have added new success criteria to address the author's responsibility for supporting text resizing: Level AA: Visually rendered text can be resized without assistive technology up to 200 percent and down to 50 percent without loss of content or functionality. Level AAA: Visually rendered text can be resized without assistive technology up to 200 percent and down to 50 percent without loss of content or functionality and in a way that does not require the user to scroll horizontally. ---------------------------- Response from GSW: ---------------------------- Thank you for addressing my comment
