>A web page must first be accessible in order to be usable, not the other way around. If a page is usable, but the user can't get to it, they don't even have a chance to use it. Usability is dependent upon accessibility. But if WCAG is being looked for by governments as a way of measuring accessibility, it is the user experience they must measure - not the level of access. If a simple task can only be completed with great difficulty using an AT, then while this is strictly 'accessible' it remains discriminatory. Which brings us back to usability and accessibility. _____________________________________________________________________ VirusChecked for the Incepta Group plc _____________________________________________________________________
