Hot Metal Pro 6.0 still has the check accessibility feature, but the checking is not based on the current W3C Web Content guidelines[1], but on some older guidelines developed at ATRC at the U. of Toronto. I have enquired about their potential support of the W3C guidelines and have not received an answer. I urge you to contact them and request they upgrade this feature to comply with the current W3C guidelines. They have a feedback form on their web page.
