Ian, I had trouble with 3.2 because of the word "selected." Having gotton over that difficulty, I have become comfortable with 3.2. The rewording talks about making structure available. 3.2 talks about content. I think 3.2 is correct and the proposal a step back. I like the examples and would like then *included* with old 3.2 From the proposal: PROPOSAL 2) Checkpoint 3.2. The current text: Ensure that the user has access to the content of an element selected by the user. This checkpoint is the evolution of a requirement for access to individual cells, list items, etc. However, I think some of the intent is lost in the current wording. I propose the following: Ensure that the user has access to the document structure expressed by markup in an output device-independent manner. For example, ensure that the user can clearly understand the content of a table cell, the content of a list item, the content of a header, etc. Jim Thatcher IBM Special Needs Systems www.ibm.com/sns thatch@us.ibm.com (512)838-0432
