31 August 2001
For the latest version of any W3C specification please
consult the list of W3C Technical Reports at
http://www.w3.org/TR/. Some documents listed below may have been superseded
since the publication of this document.
Note: In this document, bracketed labels such as "[HTML4]"
link to the corresponding entries in this section. These labels are also
identified as references through markup.
There are two recommended ways to refer to the "User Agent Accessibility
Guidelines 1.0" (and to W3C documents in general):
- References to a specific version of "User Agent Accessibility Guidelines
1.0". For example, use the "this version" URI to refer to
the current document: http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/WD-UAAG10-20010831/.
- References to the latest version of "User Agent Accessibility Guidelines
1.0". Use the "latest version" URI to refer to the most recently published
document in the series: http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/UAAG10/.
In almost all cases, references (either by name or by link) should be to a
specific version of the document. W3C will make every effort to make this
document indefinitely available at its original address in its original form.
The top of this document includes the relevant catalog metadata for specific
references (including title, publication date, "this version"
URI, editors' names, and copyright information).
An XHTML 1.0
[XHTML10] paragraph including a reference to this specific document
