I have built a form which has a submit button on it. If the user activates the button and hasn't filled out the form correctly, a javascript 'alert' pop-up is presented to the user, giving more information. This appears to be in breach of checkpoint 10.1 http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10/wai-pageauth.html#tech-avoid-pop-ups Would it be acceptable to provide a warning message, something like 'Submitting this form may result in a pop-up dialog being displayed' before the submit button, in the same color as the background? Thus (I believe) making the text available to screen reader users but not to sighted users? Regards Graham Oliver __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
