Great example... - 8/24/2005 2:06:36   
I wonder if there are more blind or near-blind web customers for maternity clothes or visitors using Firefox?

Either way, I feel discriminated against as a Firefox user (build 1.0.4) ...

Check out the left navigation. It is really hard to believe they could miss Firefox.

Actually they didn't miss out Fx for visually disabled users; their tabbing order is very good and FoxyVoice used in conjunction whilst tabbing makes it very easy to use. It's a shame that they haven't added a doctype for sighted users of Fx, but maybe that is more to do with the mall that they are on.
However it is to their credit that they are not displaying any logos implying conformance with any standards, when they clearly do not comply.
How come you landed on a site like this Mojo, are congratulations in order? The patter of tiny Mojo feet, perhaps:)

Maybe it's my version of Firefox, but I can't read the left navigation.

There are no standards, but I understand what you mean - even though I don't agree with it. :)

I am using Fx 1.0.6, but I don't think that it would make any difference, the nav is still hard to see using pale gray on a white background. They clearly designed with IE in mind because it's viewable in that.
So we agree to disagree then.
But what about the patter of tiny feet?

I have a few sites in the early mother category and we are expecting another addition.
