[WSG] RE: Accessibility - Scanning PDFs [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

I've been looking into this recently too. I found a lot of info from Adobe of how accessible Acrobat can be made, but my experience was that it takes a long time to set them up properly. The success (or not) comes from how cleanly the pages were set up in the first place, with proper heading hie

Re: [WSG] JavaScript clarification please

JScript was originally created as an exact reverse engineering of Javascript (including the mistakes), so that IE could read pages with javascript on them. This was of course, during the browser wars when they were competing for features. Jscript has fallen a bit behind Javascript by now, so there

Re: [WSG] JavaScript clarification please

There is only one JavaScript, as created by Netscape. Though it can be used for other things, such as programming an application, I think that is worded right. On Tue, Oct 28, 2008 at 12:10 PM, Hassan Schroeder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > liorean wrote: > > Anyway, by the time the first ful

Re: [WSG] JavaScript clarification please

When you say support, are you saying that Internet Explorer will not execute JavaScript, or it will execute JavaScript as JScript? And in the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript link you provided it states that JavaScript is heavily object-based, so should I assume this as well to be correct?

Re: [WSG] Mark-up for physical/postal addresses

I don't think David said anything against microformats. The problems were with the use of the address element (which should only be used if it contains the contact details of the person who created a page) and the use of a definition list as an address for someone is not a definition of the per

Re: [WSG] Mark-up for physical/postal addresses

The address tag was never actually built for addresses (a common misconception), and addresses are also not lists? I would highly recommend marking it up with Microformats and using the built in classes to style this as you need. On Tue, Oct 28, 2008 at 9:33 AM, Darren Lovelock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Well, what's wrong with microformats? It's really the way to go, and search engines like yahoo, technorati already use these formats.

RE: [WSG] Mark-up for physical/postal addresses

Personally, IF the address had a name associated with it, I would use a definition list. However, there are some purists out there that can't see beyond using a dl for anything other than defining a word. But John Doe is a term and his address, phone number, etc are describing him: John D
