The focus indicator I know > from Netscape and IE is a dotted box, not a highlight. Perhaps this is merely a question of language then: highlight is supposed to mean "a mechanism used to distinguish A from B." It may be a dotted box, reverse video, underlining, marching red ants, or a higher-pitched voice. How is highlighting done by braille displays? It looks like we should define the term highlight in the guidelines. Or, use a better term. Can you suggest one? - Ian -- Ian Jacobs (jacobs@w3.org) http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs Tel/Fax: +1 212 684-1814
