I don't understand what free has to do meeting the 508 or W3C standards. I also don't understand why something must be OS neutral to meet a standard. I do understand that free (cost), OS neutral, availability in national languages, AT support, etc. were considerations when crafting the standards because they gave a sense of reality and implementation status. Can you point to where free or OS neutral is part of either standard? By the way, since LYNX supports FRAMES, if authors put usable titles on them, would that end the debate about frames? Also is LYNX supported JavaScript, would that end the debate about JavaScript? Regards, Phill
