LRK:: Here's my personal opinion: Right now, there are so many pages on the web that need ALT text, and so little chance that they will be fixed soon (or maybe ever, although I hope that education will help that), that I agree on the priority of the text equiv filter. We will still need to figure out priority of the various techniques, e.g as listed in http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/text-equiv unless, of course, Michael plans to do them all <grin>. Do other folks agree with priority of the text equiv? And if so, how shall we prioritize the various text equiv techniques? Len ------- Leonard R.
