The BBC certainly has returned to the days before standards in that they refuse to follow even the most common ones. They even ignored Accessibility standards from a consortium they are a member of. Spending a fewminutes doing a check and already I have found the BBC failed to comply with priority 2 requirements. Specifically: Checkpoint 3.2 <http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10/#tech-identify-grammar> However instead of actually caring about accessibility and fixing the problems they just "redefined" accessibility. I hope you explained why the BBC does not care about any kind of accessibility. Andy -- Computers are like air conditioners.
