> mouse gestures represent a potential problem similar to pop ups. They do nothing of the sort. Mouse gestures are a user-agent issue. If any accessibility issues were extant, they would be the domain of the User Agent Accessibility Guidelines. I can quite readily see accessibility *benefit* to mouse gestures, which are already implemented in Opera. I can see certain mobility-impaired, visually-impaired, or dyslexic persons liking them, for example. And besides, they're always optional. As ever, as soon as somebody invents something new, fun, useful, or (most often of all) attractive, there's an immediate denunciation on this esteemed List. "Problem." Hardly. -- Joe Clark | joeclark@joeclark.org Author, _Building Accessible Websites_ <http://joeclark.org/access/> | <http://joeclark.org/book/>
