Re: [WSG] using images for my website and accessibility

2009-07-14 Thread John Unsworth
Hi Marvin,
Um, sorry but I'm a bit confused. Have you already found these images
and now you need to contact the owner, or are you looking for images
of fruit and vegetables that you can use legally? If what your saying
is that you've got these images, but don't know where they are from,
and your searching for banana.jpg - well the mind boggles! I would
assume you'd find loads and then it's a bit like a pin in a haystack!
Let alone trying to find img_0537.jpg?
I would suggest you find some images on Flickr and set your search
options for open Creative Commons licensed images. You set your
options in the Advanced Search panel; for example
http://www.flickr.com/search/advanced/?q=mushroom
I appreciate with your being blind you will be heavily reliant on the
alt attribute, or the photo meta tags, but at least the images have
been released for legal use.
I've usually been fortunate to either be able to create my own images,
or have them supplied to me and then proceeded with the understanding
that the client has already cleared there use. Thus far no problems.
Hope this might help.
John Unsworth.

ADMIN: THREAD CLOSED Re: [WSG] using images for my website and accessibility

2009-07-14 Thread Lea de Groot

This thread is closed.
I'm afraid 'how can I license these images?' isn't a matter for web  
standards discussion.

Please feel free to answer Marvin offlist.

People - please try to stick to on topic posts!

warmly,
Lea

[WSG] JavaScript Language Clarifying within HTML

2009-07-14 Thread Brett Patterson
I am not sure about the most recent standards regarding the language
attribute of the SCRIPT tag within an HTML page, so I would like to know if
it is still recommended to use the language attribute within the SCRIPT
tag?

And what version, if it is recommended to use that attribute, would one
specify to have the most in both backwards and forwards compatibility?

The language attribute was deprecated in html 4, so I wouldn't advise 
using it.


see: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/scripts.html#h-18.2.1

Thanks,

David

Re: [WSG] JavaScript Language Clarifying within HTML

2009-07-14 Thread Kevin Ireson
Brett,

The language attribute of the script element was deprecated some time ago. 

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/scripts.html#h-18.2.1

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#h-4.8

However, other might know a bit more about this.
