I am a little unsure how it is intended that views on documents be shared. If I should be looking elsewhere please advise me. Having studied the relevant parts of http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/WD-WAI-PAGEAUTH-19990226/ these are my thoughts 0.0 Where possible sites should be transparent in meaning without the use of text. ~1-5% of the adult population are non-readers. 1.0 Provide text equivalents for text. ensure that the minimum text is used that conveys the meaning, with links to details. ~50% have a vocabulary of 2k words. 1.01 Provide data in site titles (meta tabs) as to number of words used and readability (flesch reading ease). 1.1 Provide a means in the common browsers for: turning off text labels (ALT) for non-readers. excluding complex or lengthy sites (1.01), conversely trite or youthful ones z.z Provide tabs for text in HTML Jonathan Chetwynd jay@peepo.com SignBrowser
