I agree with this approach. Consistent with this approach, I feel, is a methodology of "guiding" which says "well, you -can- do it, but to do it right you have to do (x), (y), and (z), and that will still mean you're losing out on (a), (b), and (c), but if you REALLY REALLY WANT TO, hey, it's your choice." This isn't forbidding anything -- but it's making it clear that there are definite problems with certain approaches, and if someone chooses to follow that path, they at least will be aware of the consequences of their actions. --Kynn Kynn Bartlett <kynn@reef.com> Technical Developer Liaison Reef North America Tel +1 949-567-7006 ________________________________________ ACCESSIBILITY IS DYNAMIC.
