The current definition of web page is below. Since FTP and email also use URIs it has been suggested that we include HTTP in the definition. So that it reads [edits shown in square brackets] Web Page a non-embedded resource [obtained] from a single URI [using HTTP] plus any other resources that are used in the rendering or intended to be rendered together with it by a user agent <http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/#useragentdef> Comments? Thanks Gregg Web page a non-embedded resource from a single URI plus any other resources that are used in the rendering or intended to be rendered together with it by a user agent <http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/#useragentdef> Note 1: Although any "other resources" would be rendered together with the primary resource, they would not necessarily be rendered simultaneously with each other. Note 2: For the purposes of conformance with these guidelines, a resource must be "non-embedded" within the scope of conformance to be considered a Web page. Example 1: A Web resource including all embedded images and media. Example 2: A Web mail program built using Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX). The program lives entirely at http://example.com/mail, but includes an inbox, a contacts area and a calendar. Links or buttons are provided that cause the the inbox, contacts, or calendar to display, but do not change the URL of the page as a whole. Example 3: A customizable portal site, where users can choose content to display from a set of different content modules. Example 4: When you enter "http://shopping.example.com/" in your browser, you enter a movie-like interactive shopping environment where you visually move about a store dragging products off of the shelves around you and into a visual shopping cart in front of you. Clicking on a product causes it to be demonstrated with a specification sheet floating alongside.
