The reviewer found the following accessibility problems with your
page or site. Each item is followed by a link to relevant information
in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (that you can find at
http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT):

     Missing or inappropriate alternative text for an Image or Animation
          (Refer to Checkpoint 1.1)
     Missing text links for a server-side Image Map

     Page inaccessible and no alternative page available
          (Refer to Checkpoint 11.4)
     Other:
The main page is inaccessible from text browsers - it does a redirect based on browser type. Using IE, the page uses javascript DHTML menus and pure javascript links, and image links, just on the front page.

The javascript menus for navigation are just about impossible to use without a pointing device.


Additional subjective comments from the reporter: 
    Completely Inaccessible with no visual
    Fully Accessible with no sound
    Mostly Inaccessible with mobility impairement
    Mostly Inaccessible with Cognitive impairement
