Hi Stephen. The new security landing page is on staging (https://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/security/) and ready for your review. Same parameters as last time...

Thanks!

Page passes the JavaScript-disabled case, is XHTML 1.0 Strict compliant, and renders well in IE 6.0.

1) Newspapers--at least in MLA--are underlined when referenced; "Washington Post" should then be underlined (which style do we use on Mozilla.com, in general, BTW; it'd be good to know)

2) It looks like it has all it needs for accessibility (ALT tags clearly spell out the text for their respective images), but cc:ing Marco for certainty :-)

I think the standards people decided italics are an acceptable substitute to underlining on the web so it doesn't get confused with a link.  If they haven't they should have and I'd argue for it in this case. :)

You took the words right out of my mouth...let's use italics for this.

Thanks,
John

Yep, checks out!

Updated on trunk with the italics and one-line copy change requested by Window.

I was expecting someone to comment about the comma being outside of the quotes, but with italics we don't have to worry about that. (I disagree with and hate the comma-inside-the-quotes rule and ignore it, although in this case, I was simply copying from the mockup.)

Thanks Justin. Just to clarify, though, it should be 'Washington Post' that's italicized, not the name of the article.

And the comma outside the quotes came from me...like you, I think that's a stupid rule and have made it one of my missions in life to break it whenever possible.
