URGENT guideline 2.4

Hello all,

We have been assigned guideline 2.4 and need to have material for both 2.4 
and 1.2 by next week.

Guideline 2.4 - Provide mechanisms to help users find content, orient 
themselves within it, and navigate through it.  [1]

There are 31 issues - several are marked "pending" meaning that either they 
have a proposal that needs to be discussed or we can close them.  [2]  Is 
someone able to summarize the issues and write proposals for closing - by 
Monday?

I've done the initial setup of the wiki for Guideline 2.4 [3]. Becky - 
similar to what you did with 1.2, would you be able to set up the wiki for 
each of the guides for 2.4? Note that guides exist for 3 of the criteria.

We need to write guides for each of the criteria. Please volunteer for at 
least one:
  Level 1 Success Criteria for Guideline 2.4
    1. Navigational features can be programmatically identified.

Level 2 Success Criteria for Guideline 2.4
    1. More than one way is available to locate content within a set of 
delivery units.
       Editorial Note: There are some concerns about how this criterion 
would apply to web applications where the only way to expose certain types 
of content would require the user to follow a specific path.
    2.  Blocks of content that are repeated on multiple perceivable units 
are implemented so that they can be bypassed.
    3.  Delivery units have descriptive titles (some overlap with 3.1 L3 SC4?)
    4. The destination of each programmatic reference to another delivery 
unit is identified through words or phrases that either occur in text or 
can be programmatically determined.

Level 3 Success Criteria for Guideline 2.4
    1. When a page or other delivery unit is navigated sequentially, 
elements receive focus in an order that follows relationships and sequences 
in the content.
    2.  Information about the user's location within a set of delivery 
units is available.
Thank you,
