Although I never did anything quite like the Section508.gov layout controls, I did implement style sheet switching on www.eeoc.gov, to provide four options: "normal", linearized, and two large font/high contrast versions. I heard from a lot of people who thought it was a great idea and wanted to know how it was done so that they could implement it on their sites. I never - not once - heard from someone who actually used it to make reading the site easier. It's now no longer an option. >>> "David Poehlman" <poehlman1@home.com> 02/12/02 11:38AM >>> I find the form on the section508.gov website difficult to get around since I don't need it and further, while we are talking about that site, I find it difficult to remember that I have to double click every time I want to wander off of their property. ----- Original Message ----- From: "robert neff" <robert.neff@uaccessit.com> To: <w3c-wai-ig@w3.org> Sent: Monday, February 11, 2002 7:29 PM Subject: adjusting font size and type Your typical user does not know or understand instruction on how to change font size using the browser. I do like the Section 508 web site's implementation to adjust font size, see http://www.section508.org . They have a form that adjusts the font size and type. This is smooth and a cool technique. Would be great if this code could be readily available to all for free in Active Server Pages, JavaScript, CF or Java.Received on Tuesday, 12 February 2002 11:49:19 UTC
