I'd like to pass a resource on to this list, as I am not seeing any new web pages regarding Section 508 since about Dec. or Jan. of this year. As a Federal web developer, I am continually trying to become as educated as possible about each paragraph of Section 508, and what it will mean to all web page/application developers here at NIEHS. Saying that, if anyone has any feedback, corrections, suggestions to the following resource, by all means let me know - I am open to making changes to what information I am making available. I have created a website which defines the part of Section 508 which will affect the web. I have gone a step further and tried to explain what each of the paragraphs mean, using W3C and others as resources. Please take a look and let me know if you find it helpful and/or if you have suggestions: http://www.niehs.nih.gov/websmith/508/home.htm Sincerely, Sarah Sarah Welna Web Developer NIEHS ITSS Contract - 361-5444 ext. 415 - MD B3-03 http://www.niehs.nih.gov/websmith/ http://www.niehs.nih.gov/
