 Dear  Wilco Fiers ,

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Working Group has reviewed the

The Working Group's response to your comment is included below.

Please review it carefully and let us know by email at
public-comments-wcag20@w3.org if you agree with it or not before 7 May
2014. In case of disagreement, you are requested to provide a specific
solution for or a path to a consensus with the Working Group. If such a
consensus cannot be achieved, you will be given the opportunity to raise a
formal objection which will then be reviewed by the Director during the

Working Group Resolution (LC-2886):
Thank you for your comment.  At this time the Working Group feels that this
should remain a CSS technique.  The Test Procedure has been updated with
language specific to checking for scripting controls that allow the user to
change the CSS.

This change will appear in the next public review draft.
