Hi,
NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT WEB GUIDELINES
I posted to the group late last year regarding formal implementation
guidelines that refer to web standards. Mostly these are created by
public sector (government) or government-related organisations.
For those interested, we've just added a developer's
I get a horizontal scrollbar (only in IE) in the .php-files which worked

Hi all
This is starting to push off topic. Please keep it on the topic of

Thanks

isn't for them' may

That's great if it is done by a standards-wise designer, so it's done

Interesting Jan, how would you do that - any examples?
Use the object element properly[1] and insert an alternative in there
(image, any styled code - even image map[2] etc. ...).
No examples, though. Sorry (can't remember any good).

So, the point is, to say that 'Flash is awful because it's not accessible'
and all that stuff is to completely miss the point - it isn't for folk with
disabilities - the html option is.
Surely?
I'd say Flash is mostly a problem because it frequently breaks all
usability and accessibility

hi andrey,
Dont design for broadband anyway.
Outside of Dublin, Cork and a
few other cities our only options here are SLOW
DIAL UP connections or overpriced isdn lines.
Also i would more or less make the majority of
your content visible at 800 x 600 screen resolution.

One example that uses the satay method and i think some of the other things
that were talking about here is.
www.disney.com.
I think there is also one in the css vault.
If you do a search for flash
there your will find it.

Jeez, I'd almost gotten over the days of framesets... *shiver* :)
Dani, have you tried changing the 'scrolling' attribute from 'auto' to

Is there a filter for Safari?
I'd like to define no-repeat for the rest of the browsers and hide it from

This reply shifts focus a bit, but with the word aesthetics being
considered relevant to the discussion, if not the only norm for design
of websites, I'd like to speak up for the semiotic dimension. Images

I've noticed that many of you are using a container ID as a named anchor
(to create a skip nav for example), but I'm not sure if you're all aware
that this creates an accessibility issue: the user can jump to the location,
but is unable to tab past it.
Also, I've found that most of the

Isn't that the most appropriate way of going?
