Yes. Checkpoints 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3 require "global configuration" (among other things). This means that one setting affects all reference text size (but other text e.g., headers may still be relatively larger), impose a single font family, and the user's preferred fg and bg colors for text. This would apply to content that is in the normal CSS flow and also positioned elements. > If you use IE5.5 or IE6 with "use own colours" on a a page with "popup > menus" such as http://www.rcslt.org/ you will see the problem when mouse > overing the left hand menu (other implementations have similar problems > but I'm not sure if the popup menu will degrade or not.) Would it suffice to point this out in the Techniques document? Thanks! - Ian > +1 In principle though. > > Jim. > -- Ian Jacobs (ij@w3.org) http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs Tel: +1 718 260-9447
