Issue 681 [1] is a question from Greg Lowney who interprets "operable via a keyboard or keyboard interface" [2] to mean that if the user's operating system has mousekeys the author does not need to do anything to the content. If this is likely to be a common interpretation, I propose adding a note to the guideline that says, "Keyboard and keyboard interface does not include mouse emulators such as mousekeys." If this is not likely to be a common interpretation, I can respond to Greg and clarify the intent with him. Cleaning up the examples (issues 381 [3] and 702 [4]) should further clarify the intent. --wendy [1] <http://trace.wisc.edu/bugzilla_wcag/show_bug.cgi?id=681> [2] <http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-WCAG20-20040311/#keyboard-operation> [3] <http://trace.wisc.edu/bugzilla_wcag/show_bug.cgi?id=381> [4] <http://trace.wisc.edu/bugzilla_wcag/show_bug.cgi?id=702> -- wendy a chisholm world wide web consortium web accessibility initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI/ /--
