Patrick or David, could one of you help me with a test as well? On the Idyll Mountain web accessibility pages I'm using a construction which _does_ allow you to skip links (e.g. it theoretically is in compliance with 508) but which may not be easy to use or locate. Basically I have a "context list" (a la Yahoo and others) which allows access to the rest of the site, and identifies a "short name" for the current location. For example: Idyllmtn * Access * This Page The Idyllmtn word is a link to Idyll Mountain's home page; the Access word is a link to the Idyll Mountain web accessibility page. The part where I get "tricky" is the "This Page" link. It has a title of "Skip Navigation Links" (or something like that) and the link jumps you down to the start of content, bypassing the list of Idyll Mountain Internet services and sites. Can you please test this to see if the link title is identifiable, if the interface is easy to use, if you can even find what I'm talking about, etc? Here is the URL: http://access.idylltn.com/d201/ I've only included this for the pages about the new D201 course and not the rest of the site because I want to get some feedback on this approach. If it doesn't work I may have to go back to the drawing board. ;) --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@reef.com> Technical Developer Liaison Customer Management/Edapta Reef North America Tel +1 949-567-7006 ________________________________________ ACCESSIBILITY IS DYNAMIC.
