Still, I would disagree with >your statement that "passing Bobby does not mean a site is accessible". >Passing Bobby _IS_ a fair test for accessibility! No, that's not correct. It's better to say "failing Bobby _is_ a fair test for inaccessibility!" If your web site can't pass Bobby, then I am pretty sure it would meet _no one's_ standard of accessibility. If your site _can_ pass Bobby, then it may or may not be broadly accessible. It's good as an indicator of problems, but bad as a guarantor of "no problems." --Kynn Kynn Bartlett Sr. Engineering Product Leader Team Edapta Reef North America Tel +1 909-674-5225 ___________________________________ BUSINESS IS DYNAMIC.
