The organizations and goverments only now beginning to demand accessibility - such as the EU and others - are however using WCAG 1.0 as their baseline. It is likely to remain that way for some time, which means that outdated or not: it is what we must contend with. The goverment officials I have spoken with is not aware - or was not aware - of WCAG 2.0 at all. As for the colours ... well, we don't do accessibility just for CSS browsers, after all. -- - Tina Holmboe Greytower Technologies tina@greytower.net http://www.greytower.net/ [+46] 0708 557 905
