RE: RE: Examples of websites that handle linearization properly

Hi Catherine, Failure F24 addresses situations where a color is defined for foreground but not background.  That is mapped to SC 1.4.3.

F24: Failure of Success Criterion 1.4.3, 1.4.6 and 1.4.8 due to specifying foreground colors without specifying background colors or vice versa

Thank you, everyone, for your responses - they're very helpful!

Jonathan,

What if, in a situation where a CSS-background image is dark enough to allow white text on it (so that it meets contrast requirements), but, when CSS is turned off, the text is now white on white (because the dark image disappeared), would it then fail contrast requirements?
