Maybe "large blocks of repetitive material" (instead of "text")?

Maybe something like "large, repetitive blocks of text (e.g. Page Headers) or links (e.g. nav bars)....." Gregg -- ------------------------------ Gregg C Vanderheiden Ph.D. Professor - Ind.

How about: #2 Users are able to skip over blocks of links that are greater than 7 (e.g. navigation bars, link lists, etc.) and non-readable text (e.g. ASCII art, lists of URIs, code samples, etc.) when reading with a synthesizer or when navigating using keyboard. -----Original Message----- From: w3c-wai-gl-request@w3.org [mailto:w3c-wai-gl-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of Gregg Vanderheiden Sent: Wednesday, July 09, 2003 2:56 PM To: w3c-wai-gl@w3.org Subject: REF 2.4b - a second required success criteria REF 2.4b Suggest a second required success criteria for success of this extended checkpoint. "#2 Users are able to skip over navigational bars or other blocks of links that are greater than 7 when reading with a synthesizer or navigating using keyboard.
