Re: Color contrast in links -- is it important?

What lots of folk forget/don't know/wrongly assume to be unimportant is that
some users need low contrast. Many dyslexic users, those with Irlen's,
scoptic sensitivity, visual stress. And we (I'm one) are covered by the
DDA.

So there is no simple solution, and current regs do not reflect this :(
