Lisa, I accepted your earlier statement that Hebrew vowel marks are not in Unicode - and tried to work around that. I appreciate your subsequent note that you found a computer font with vowels, because it led me to check Unicode. It turns out that Unicode does include Hebrew vowel marks, in positions 05B0-05C3 and 05F5. I think that this implies the need for an additional bullet-point under 4.1 in the current draft of the new guidelines, http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/WD-WCAG20-20010328.html at the end of the bullet-list: * In languages which allow more than one mode of mode of text presentation (e.g. Hebrew with and without vowel marks) use the text presentation mode that supports the use of these guidelines. -- Adam Reed areed2@calstatela.edu Context matters. Seldom does *anything* have only one cause.
