Are not all these tools that run on servers also available to run on local machines inside the firewall? Bobby is, I believe most of the validators from W3C are available, including even their source code, and most web authoring management tools allow you to add, or have their own, tools. For example IBM WebSphere Studio allows for addition of tools. The answer is not to put the pages outside the firewall, but to put the tools inside the firewall and make them part of you management and publishing process. You could easily add a few seconds to your "hours" process to get pages approved for publishing by running Bobby internally before they go live. Once they are live, you can use linkbot, and all the measurement and analysis tools to monitor the web site. Tools like Bobby again can be added to the mix, generating reports on accessibility along with hits, security, etc. Regards, Phill Jenkins IBM Accessibility Center - Special Needs Systems
