Judy, Having done these kinds of evaluations before (for Qwest) I know that lots of people don't know how to turn off images, increase font sizes, etc. on their browser, and that every browser has the commands/instructions located in different menus and calls them different things (for example in Netscape you turn images off in preferences, but in iE you unselect the show pictures option on the advanced tab of the Internet options pop-up). I also know that I forget between times I do it and waste a lot of time rediscovering the process... So I think there should be more instructions for how to do the things that we are telling users to do: turn off images, change the font size (larger and smaller) in the browser, turn off the sound, and change the display color to black and white. The instructions will have to be browser specific - so I guess we have to decide how many browsers we want to give directions for. Maybe this could be hyperlinked (Ex: link = for instructions for testing your web page with X browser). Am I the only one who has difficulty remembering how to do these things? Lila
