AI would suggest a further modification based on Andy's proposal. -----Original Message----- From: w3c-wai-gl-request@w3.org [mailto:w3c-wai-gl-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of Andi Snow-Weaver Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2004 1:45 pm To: w3c-wai-gl@w3.org Subject: RE: [#828] Definition of foreground and background I suggest a slight modification to Gregg's proposed definition of "background": Background: Anything that appears behind foreground content. This could be a contrasting color, decorative material or meaningful content. I suggest inserting the word "other" before "meaningful content." Background colors may be meaingful (e.g., in color-coding-- color-coding is OK so long as it's not the *only* way of making information available). The revised text would read as follows: <proposed> Background: Anything that appears behind foreground content. This could be a contrasting color, decorative material, or other meaningful content. </proposed> John Andi andisnow@us.ibm.com IBM Accessibility Center http://www.ibm.com/able
