Note: The user agent renders content through one or more viewports. Viewports include windows, frames, 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. Note: This definition is based on User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 Glossary. Internal WD updated 25 August. Response: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-comments-wcag20/2007Jul/0058.html; Resolution: The term "viewport" was taken from the User Agent Accessibility Guidelines. We have added the definition of viewport to the WCAG2 Glossary.; (Please make sure the resolution is adapted for public consumption)
