Re: [office] accessibility caption proposal comments

[Richard Schwerdtfeger <schwer@us.ibm.com>]

Thanks Michael.

content-id is fine.

It looks like all text for a caption is wrapped in a text:sequence. I have only seen the use of draw:text-box in Open Office and Workplace implementations. Is this a spec. change and user agent implementation change or just a user agent implementation change?

Cheers,
Rich

Rich,

what Bruce describes actually is what the TC agreed on Monday and what it
already included in the 1.1 draft I'm currently editing.

Does it work for you?

Michael
