<current> 1. For all non-text content that is functional, such as graphical links or buttons, text alternatives identify the purpose or function of the non-text content. [I] </current> <proposed> 1. For all non-text content that is functional, such as graphical links or buttons, text alternatives provide the same function as the non-text content. [I] </proposed> Rationale: Clears up a potential ambiguity- the text alternative should do more than simply *identifying* the function or purpose of the non-text content. I believbe this is an editorial change that does not affect the substance of the success criterion. John "Good design is accessible design."
