hi Lynne,
in a wor d "no"
I'm pretty sure it isn't the same as theone used in the DDA but can't recall
what it is.
the website of the Europe information society initiative can be found at
http://europa.eu.int/comm/information_society/eeurope/index_en.htm
I'd think if you follow the links to "objectives" and accessibility you'll
eventually find pointers to the definition they use.
