aloha, john! as per your comment: quote 3) Figure 1 and other figures end with [D], where I assume D is short for 'more Details'. May want to spell it out because [D] looks too much like a reference citation (not in this work, but in other works anyway). unquote the hyperink text actually reads: "Description of Figure X" the extra verbiage is obscured from view using WCAG2 Technique C7: http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/C7.html by adding the following style rule to the HEAD of the ocument: a span.context { height: 1px; width: 1px; position: absolute; overflow: hidden; top: -10px; } and the [D] link model is copied from other W3C TRs hat contain longdescriptions (such as http://www.w3.org/TR?css2 but, that said, i don't think it would hurt if a title was added to each (a WCAG1 technique), so that there is an extra means of disabiguating individual links with apparently identical text -- to this end, please find attached the validated Overview-v8.html also perusable at: http://www.hicom.net/~oedipus/temp/w3c/rwab/Overview-v8.html RELATED: * http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/ * http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/ * http://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG20/quickref/ gregory. ---------------------------------------------------------- ACCOUNTABILITY, n.
