kiosks, internet cafes, anyplace where someone can use an "open" machine or a machine that is not their personal machine, has the potential to be the wrong locale. (Separate from the guidelines discussion: There should be a way for a user to set their user agent locale independent of O/S etc. Perhaps in a style sheet? Then they can override it the same way they might override accessibility settings. ) > Steve Billings wrote: > > Suggestions for points to address in the guidelines on Ojects, Images, > and Applets: > > * How an object (such as an applet) should determine it's runtime > locale.
