I'd like to take the opportunity to thank Jon Gunderson for making available to us course material sorely needed. Thankyou. I'd also like to spend a moment asking whether some of the experts on this list could help me understand a few points regarding the WAI WCAG. On the documents referenced from http://cita.rehab.uiuc.edu/courses/2004-02-REHAB711NC/index.html we can find a small icon that seems to indicate compliance with WAI WCAG 1.0 level 'AAA'. However, I am at a loss. Far be it from me to question a learned institution but: * I cannot find any ABBR for abbreviations. Is this not a requirement of 'AAA' (4.2) ? * Whilst I might be mistaken, it seems that the documents use tables to implement layout. Is it wrong to interpret checkpoint 3.3 to say that stylesheets should be used. Is it possible to achieve 'AA' or 'AAA' whilst using tables ? * I notice that many collections of links are implemented using the DL list - how does this work in relation to checkpoint 3.6 ? The same question is one I must as regarding the information on meeting time and dates - is a phone-number really a definition of Jon Gunderson ? * Even though these documents do seem to be part of a collection themselves, the LINK element is one I can't find. Have I misunderstood checkpoint 13.9 ? * When using tables to implement layout, I thought that checkpoint 3.4 was clear on avoiding absolute values in attributes, yet I see several table cells set to over 550 pixels width. May I ask for a clearification on how to interpret 3.4 ? * I could not find any terse abbreviations on, for instance, the course schedule material. I fear I might have misunderstood checkpoint 5.6 which seem to require that. Can someone help ? * A related checkpoint - or so I believe - is 5.1, which says to use THEAD and TBODY to group rows. Have I missed something here ? A little help with understanding these issues would be hugely appreciated. -- - Tina Holmboe Greytower Technologies tina@greytower.net http://www.greytower.net/ [+46] 0708 557 905
