In guideline 2.4 of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2 (http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-WCAG20-20041119/#navigation-mechanisms) it is recommended to add a visual skip link to jump to the different sections of a document. As Anne van Kesteren writes about in his post named 'Skip links should be a markup problem', these aids shouldn't be visual. In one of the comments in that post, it was proposed to use the LINK element with a REL attribute which relates to the different sections of the site. I would therefore propose that these link-types should be recommended in the Web Applications 1.0 WD: NAVIGATION Relates to the main site-navigation CONTENT Relates to the head of content ADDITIONAL Relates to an additional section, e.g. a sidebar DISCLAIMER Relates to the copyright-notice/legal agreements in the document -- ------------------------------ Henrik Lied http://misinterpreted.net/ henrik at misinterpreted.net
