Are the disabed really the main priority when it comes to web standards? I'm new to web design as a job and I like the fact I know the standards and am on this list because I see it as the niche in the market that'll help me be a successful freelancer. For me coding to standards has been more about being state of the art than anything else. Knowing that behind the pretty interface is slim and sexy coding. I always laughed off the disability thing the same way you do when there are no spaces in the supermarket car park except all the disabled spots. Is there really that many disabled internet users? I would like to know. :) ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
