I agree - I think the areas of "Web Standards" and "Best Practices" should go side by side. If one country has decided to actually legislate on something then it's at least worth discussing.

I believe this question would fall within the scope of this group.

Anyway I would be very interested to know the answer to this, with a link to the related legislation.

    Hello all
     I recall reading somewhere a while back that UK law states you
    can't have a check box ticked on a form
     EG - "untick this box if you don't want to receive emails" would
be illegal for a UK site. Could anyone tell me if I'm right or wrong and if possible give me
    some credible links to back this up?

    Thanks heaps,
    Paul Collins
