Dan, Your website (http://www.gooddocuments.com/) seems to be full of the ... interesting thing at <a href="http://www.foo.com/dir/f">www.foo.com/dir/f</a> idiom. For example: (Chris also teaches journalism at Boston University -- he has a web site at www.bu.edu/cdaly.) -- http://www.gooddocuments.com/philosophy/trellixdev.htm I hope the trellix product doesn't encourage this idiom. why not just (Chris also teaches journalism at Boston University -- he has a _web site_.) or better: (Chris also teaches journalism at Boston University -- see _Chris Daly's Home Page_). Please see: Avoid talking about mechanisms -- Hypertext Style Guide http://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/NoMechanics ŠTim BL 1992,93,94,95 Tim, I suggest you add a paragraph about the url-in-your-face idiom. If you use the original World Wide Web program, you never see a URL or have to deal with HTML. -- INTERVIEW Tim Berners-Lee On Simplicity, Standards, and "Intercreativity" http://www.w3j.com/3/s1.interview.html I think this affects accessability; it's discussed in general at http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT-TECHS/#links but not specifically. WCAG folks, please add something. -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/
