The ACCLIP (accessibility learner information profile), as outlined in the IMS Project Web site, addresses the issue of preferences for learners. All this fuss over new windows is a non-issue when you approach accessibility as a transformation of content. greg Tomas Caspers wrote: > > Also sprach Info at ATutor: > >> If I know you are using a screen reader for example, I can strip away >> all the redudant navigation links, remove the images, or present >> columns of text in a single column. > > > But you still couldn't tell wether the screen reader is used by a > visually impaired person, who might not need or want these images or > by a dyslexic person, who could use and maybe even need the images. > > /Tomas > >
