A web for everyone, everywhere ! I agree that those are the ideals we should try to achieve. And "Mugur Padurean" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> also wrote: > Hello, reality check here. But part of the reality is that many websites have a specific target market. One site I work on has a very narrow, highly specialized market. My client knows his customers and potential customers. They are all on broadband. They have to be for their industry. As such, I was instructed to design the site for broadband access. The client is the one calling the shots and paying the bill. We, as designers, give advise regarding the pros & cons of various requests by the client and may recommend other alternatives. But in the end, the client has the final say. That is the reality. -- But we can still try to make the site as accessible as possible within the client-defined framework.
