Variable values. This is a set of (expanded
QName, value) pairs. It contains the same expanded QNames as the
in-scope variables in the static context for the expression. The
expanded QName is the name of the variable and the value is the
dynamic value of the variable, which includes its dynamic
type.

this source
A
resource may have one, or more than one,
representation(s) associated with it at any given instant. Each of
these representations is termed a `variant.' Use of the term
`variant' does not necessarily imply that the resource is subject
to
content negotiation.

A resource may have one, or more than one,

From User Agent
Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) |
Glossary for this
source
This content type label refers to all of
the requirements related to video for the following checkpoints:
2.5, 2.6, and 3.2. When this label is part of a conformance
profile, the user agent must implement at least one video format.
Furthermore, when this label is part of a profile, the user agent
must satisfy the requirements of checkpoint 3.2 for all implemented
video formats, not just those identified in a conformance profile.
The video requirements apply to video content that is recognized as
distinct and that, according to the encoding format, may be
rendered as a coherent unit.

From Authoring Tool
Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2000-02-03) |
Glossary for this
source
Authoring tools may render the same content
in a variety of ways; each rendering is called a "view." Some
authoring tools will have several different types of view, and some
allow views of several documents at once. For instance, one view
may show raw markup, a second may show a structured tree, a third
may show markup with rendered objects while a final view shows an
example of how the document may appear if it were to be rendered by
a particular browser. A typical way to distinguish views in a
graphic environment is to place each in a separate window.

From User Agent
Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) |
Glossary for this
source
The user agent renders content through one
or more viewports. Viewports include windows, frames, pieces of
paper, loudspeakers, and virtual magnifying glasses. A viewport may
contain another viewport (e.g., nested frames). User agent user
interface controls such as prompts, menus, and alerts are not
viewports. Graphical and tactile viewports have two spatial
dimensions. A viewport may also have temporal dimensions, for
instance when audio, speech, animations, and movies are rendered.
When the dimensions (spatial or temporal) of rendered content
exceed the dimensions of the viewport, the user agent provides
mechanisms such as scroll bars and advance and rewind controls so
that the user can access the rendered content "outside" the
viewport. Examples include: when the user can only view a portion
of a large document through a small graphical viewport, or when
audio content has already been played.When several viewports
coexist, only one has the current focus at a given moment. This
viewport is highlighted to make it stand out.User agents may render
the same content in a variety of ways; each rendering is called a
view. For instance, a user agent may allow users to view an entire
document or just a list of the document's headers. These are two
different views of the document.

Hypertext that is generated from its URI by
a program, rather than by recourse to a stored file. This was my
name for the idea. The CERN phone book was the first example, in
1991. It is sometimes difficult to tell, and impossible to define
formally, what is virtual hypertext and what is not.

Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) |
Glossary for this
source
A visual object is content rendered through
a graphical viewport. Visual objects include graphics, text, and
visual portions of movies and other animations. A visual track is a
visual object that is intended as a whole or partial presentation.
A visual track does not necessarily correspond to a single physical
object or software object.

A visual-only presentation is content
consisting exclusively of one or more visual tracks presented
concurrently or in series. A silent movie is an example of a
visual-only presentation.

Glossary for this
source
This content type label refers to all of
the requirements related to visually rendered text for the
following checkpoints: 3.3, 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3. If a user agent
renders text visually, it must satisfy these requirements in order
to conform, and this label must appear in a conformance profile.
Furthermore, the user agent must satisfy these requirements for all
implemented formats that produce visually rendered text, not just
those identified in a conformance profile. An audio-only or
tactile-only user agent is not required to satisfy the requirements
associated with this label.
