Re: Why OBJECT has no LONGDESC

Yes, what browsers do with LONGDESC and OBJECT will affect what
we should tell authors to do with them.  And the consistency
across browsers in how these elements are handled will affect our
success in getting authors to follow the guidelines.

So, I would like to encourage people who have found this thread
"seamless..."  interesting to follow through and pay attention to
what the Browser Guidelines say or should say about these
features.  Read the draft.  Comment to the WAI-UA group.
