<br>
Hi James, <br>
<br>
Was the campus web developer wondering what "ME" refers to on that
Section<br>
508 web page, or was he/she actually using the same terminology? From the<br>
context it would appear to be a specific federal division ("the ME<br>
Division"), but my Friday afternoon brain isn't coming up with much.<br>
Mechanical Engineering? Medical Examiners? Middle East? Maine? <br>
<br>
One point this helps to illustrate is the importance of WCAG 2.0 guideline<br>
3.1.4, which says this about abbreviations: "A mechanism for identifying
the<br>
expanded form or meaning of abbreviations is available."<br>
