The CSS validates, though, if you can dig around to find the right URL. <http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/TR/base/techniques.css> > I recall some months back, we discussed the importance of assuring that web > accessibility cross the operating system divide and we needed to look at how > things render on Macs. 1. Write valid code 2. Tweak for known incompatibilities in target browsers Action 2 above includes Macs and various other platforms, of course. For both 1 and 2, read _Designing with Web Standards_ by Zeldman, among many other widely-available sources. A *lot* of people working in Web accessibility use Macintosh or are outright Macintosh separatists. I do not think WAI is in much of a position to use its own invalid documents as models of CSS-based design, however. -- Joe Clark | joeclark@joeclark.org Author, _Building Accessible Websites_ <http://joeclark.org/access/> | <http://joeclark.org/book/>
