I have a question: how should we rule about relative/absolute units for lenghts? Do we mean that every layout should be "liquid", or fluid? Another way of viewing it: is a fixed layout "per se" inaccessible? Another related question: is a horizontal bar an accessibility (rather than usability) issue? Let a part that pixels are defined as relative units, so that checkpoint 3.4 in wcag 1 tends to be very ambiguous. But what we need really to do to have an accessible layout? Absolutely liquid? ;-) Ore relatively short fixed is good enough (just to fit 640 x 480)? Or fixed layouts are not a problem at all, as long as you can use the horizontal scrollbar? I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I'd like to hear the wg opinions. Thank you Maurizio Boscarol http://www.usabile.it/
