Re: why don't accessibility checkers find non-distinguishable links?

Hi Jared-

So this would be acceptable? -

<heading>2015 documents</heading>
<href> privacy </href>
<href>security</href>

<heading>2016 documents</heading>
<href> privacy </href>
<href>security</href>

I've always thought that links that have the same link text but different
destinations must be made unique. It seems that even with the context of the
headers when put into the links list they would not be easily
distinguishable.

Thanks,

Jon
