Gregg, Speaking for those who would prefer the pages with heavy graphics, perhaps even heavier than most pages are now (or at least more meat in the graphics!), I agree with your concerns. The graphics form must convey the fullness of the information, even tho it is sometimes difficult to assemble sufficient graphics to convey the whole story. The goal of dynamically created pages should be to make the whole presentation: graphics, sound, multi-media, text, and mixes tailored to the user, all convey the same story. I suspect that before this can become realistic, authoriting tools will have to be able to generate the parts from the whole, and flag the author when a page has insuffucient graphics and/or text. Is this possible? Anne At 04:07 PM 3/12/2000 -0600, Gregg Vanderheiden wrote: >The bug-a-boo I see is ensuring that the alternative form created by the >server does indeed have all the information.
