Not my example, but yours is the one which is confusing. I did not nest labels and links. I just said WHY I DID NOT use labels in my example. Labels and links were nested at your example at: http://checker.atrc.utoronto.ca/docs/Resource%20booking.htm remember ;-)? > We needed the same functionality as shown in your > example and had to use to pieces of text - one is the control label and one > is the link. Like this: > http://checker.atrc.utoronto.ca/servlet/ChangeGuideline?lang=eng That is right, but not the thing I want (remember that I wanted to add a lot of "resources" and I don't want to have a double text for each). That's why I preferred using the title attribute. Please, take notice that: 1.- http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/tests/test57.html says that http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/tests/testfiles/57-3.html passes the test, so I assume that as long a a title attribute is provided, labels, though recommended, are not required. That's why I added the [not(@title)] part in my XQuery expressions. 2.- Your example at http://checker.atrc.utoronto.ca/servlet/ChangeGuideline?lang=eng fails with http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/tests/test197.html (lots of "(view details)" links pointing to different targets ;-) ???!!!! 3,. You should validate http://checker.atrc.utoronto.ca/servlet/ChangeGuideline?lang=eng with itself (it does not right now) ;-) 4.- I will test your validator. :-) Thanks.
