Let's put this into perspective: - Macromedia really wants to convince people that flash is accessible, and keep the number of 100% flash sites up. - Macromedia helps Lightmaker build an "accessible" website, without any regard for the real rules of accessibility, with their usual "we'll do it our way" attitude. - Macromedia gives the website an award. A very fair process, indeed! MM really could have succeeded with this one, if they had just followed the rules. The fact that the text only page does not validate is one of those things where we have to say, "sorry, nice try but you missed a spot." -- -- Christian Montoya christianmontoya.com ... rdpdesign.com ... cssliquid.com ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
