The files in this directory comprise an example implementation of search 
engine-friendly hidden content. This example is designed to satisfy the 
guidelines listed below. Moreover, it is intended to demonstrate a set 
of best practices that minimize the risks associated with DHTML, such as 
lower search engine rankings caused by search engines' inability to 
understand JavaScript and DHTML.

           Basic Implementation Techniques for Content Hiding           
\*--------------------------------------------------------------------*/

User Experience

	Hidden content implementations should improve the User experience and 
	must not impair the User experience. 

Dynamic

	Hidden content elements must have a visible state--a set of conditions 
	under which the hidden content is visible and readable by Users. The 
	visible state must be capable of being activated by a browser event. The 
	event should be automatic (e.g., document.onload) or it should be 
	triggered by Users' actions (e.g., element.onclick). In the case of 
	Users' actions, the trigger element should be conspicuous and 
	intuitive. 

Accessibility

	Hidden content should not be implemented in such a way that it causes 
	the content to be inaccessible to Users with disabilities or Users who 
	rely on screen readers or similar devices. 

Progressive Enhancement

	Hidden content must default to a visible state when rendered in a 
	browser that either doesn't support JavaScript or doesn't have 
	JavaScript enabled. A document in which all hidden content elements are 
	in the default visible state should provide a User interface that is 
	functional, cohesive, and reasonably intuitive.
