Hello, As part of determining the minimal requirement [1] for checkpoint 7.6 (navigation to important elements), I sent a proposal [2] to include a list of the important elements for known languages (e.g., HTML, SMIL) in the Guidelines (though it may be more appropriate to have markup language specific information in the Techniques document). Here is a first draft at lists for HTML, SMIL, and SVG. For HTML (drawing from the HTML 4.01 table of elements [3]): a) Active elements: A, INPUT, BUTTON, OPTION, TEXTAREA c) Headers: H1-H6 d) Frames: FRAME, NOFRAMES e) Container elements: FIELDSET, OPTGROUP f) TABLE, FORM, P, ADDRESS Question: Should media objects be included (OBJECT, IMG)? What about lists? DIV? For SMIL (drawing from the SMIL 1.0 DTD [4]) a) Active elements: a, anchor b) Container elements: par, seq, switch Question: Should media objects be included? For SVG (drawing from the 29 June SVG Draft DTD [5]): a) Active elements: a b) Grouping element: g Question: Should shapes be included (e.g., rect, circle, etc.)? For MathML [6]? Comments welcome (and I expect there will be some), - Ian P.S. This proposal is pertinent to checkpoints 7.6, 7.7, and 8.4 in the 7 July 2000 draft [7].
