Hi everyone, Sorry to jump on an old thread, but I'm back in the accessibility universe now, and this came up today. Specifically on link colour and distinguishing links from general text, there's a conflict in the success & fail criteria for 1.4.1. The test from G183 [1] specifically says that changing the link on mouseover/focus to include an underline or other mechanism is ok, whereas F73 [2] says that is not sufficient. >From the previous discussion, it sounds like G183 should be deprecated, as if we are talking about "people who cannot perceive color differences" then the contrast aspect is irrelevant. -Alastair 1] http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/NOTE-WCAG20-TECHS-20120103/G183 2] http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/NOTE-WCAG20-TECHS-20120103/F73
