Hi All,
I think the answer is no, but does anyone know how to write a user
stylesheet that unsticks sticky header's and footers, and little arrows
that float mid page right, and the menu arrows on the W3C documents.

I'm wanting something what will work on html prefexes of html:// and
htmls://. That is everything.

I have tried a few weeks now and think the answer is no. But, I haven't
read every module.

Best, Wayne

Thanks All,
That is what I thought. Here is something interesting.
If you focus on font-family, letter-spacing, word-spacing, and line-height,
pages that are good responsive pages that unstick their headers and
footers, work like a charm with the other stuff.

Color is problematic. You can change it only sometimes. Other times you
can't.

Actually minimally effective style change universally for WCAG 2.1
conformant pages is the goal. Sadly, we cannot do it with CSS.

I think the problem is the inability to query CSS parameters effectively.
So for a universal unsticking you need to build an extension.

Too bad, and thank you,

Wayne

Well, you’d have to undo the specific styling that was applied. There’d be
no one size fits all solution. Does the page exist publicly on the internet?

We could, for example, get a style that undid the arrows on the W3C
page... or look at it and see if there is a better way to do something
(e.g. if breakpoints are specified in px maybe we should re-do them for em
...)

But you are right that in general you need to be able to examine the CSS.
This could be done to some extent with JS. The old Opera actually allowed
for sharing userCSS, but never had a good enough search over available
stuff.

:(

You can change color if you throw out all the colors and background images like high contrast mode in windows does. And then add back I the colors you want. Related question might be is support for high contrast mode in Windows required for accessibility support of WCAG CR?
