yes, but a majority is. for them well suited interfaces are needed. for the others one may offer some additional tools or whatever. with all respect to impaired people, if one builds an interface that fits to people with no ability to interact or to see it, then there is no need of starting thinking about. <http://www.w3.org/WAI/> doesn't say to downgrade interaction & layout to the most impaired user, but to ensure that this one still is able to understand a minimum of the content. that is a big difference. it's similar to try to make an interface run on 99% of the user agents out there. the "<h1>hello world</h1>" will make big problems ;-) andré -- ___________________________________________________________________ andre m. winter, cartography for internet and multimedia applications schiessstand 4/1, a6091 goetzens, tyrol, austria tel.: ++43.5234.32732 email: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://www.vectoreal.com/> SVG consulting and development <http://www.carto.net/> online cartography focusing on SVG <http://www.carto.at/> print and online touristic map solutions ------------------------ Yahoo!
