womble Posts: 5526 Joined: 3/14/2005 From: Living on the edge Status: offline	Offline free accessibility checker - 9/2/2005 6:55:24 Just found this very useful free offline accessibility checker, A-Prompt. It's a free download (around 3Mb) from the University of Toronto. Allows you to check WAI Priority levels 1-3 and section 508. There are various settings that allow you to repair your code, either by overwriting the original, giving the original file a different extension and saving the repaired file with the original name, leaving the original file alone and renaming the repaired file with a different extension, or it allows you to select a name for the repaired file, and once you've done all the repairs you can insert the conformance icon with it as well. /toddles off to play about with it some more... _____________________________ ~~ "A cruel god ain't no god at all" ~~

I've only just got the mag so have not yet looked closely at the contents. .Net is available in the US under the title "Web Builder". .Net/Web Builder < Message edited by caz -- 9/2/2005 7:25:55 > _____________________________ Do not meddle in the affairs of cats, for they are subtle and will dance, or more on your keyboard.

Downloaded it on the weekend I really like the way things like table summary's and long descriptions can be added as you go. Thanks again. Sally (in reply to womble)
