Hi,
I am not too sure where else to ask about this. I have recently been part of
discussions about the Peoplesoft application that we and many Universities
use (not my fault) and its adherence to accessibility recommendations, and
web standards. Peoplesoft claims to adhere to section 508.. Is
Yes please keep the fun posts out of here. I want more on CSS rounded
corners please and site checks because that is so much more on topic than a
conference about Web Standards and Accessibility being discussed in the
webstandardsgroup.org mail list.
Ok this post is OT and slightly flame.. But
I can say with 99% certainty the rendering is not IE nor Safari it is
Macromedia's own rendering engine. In C3 when you browse web pages you get
Safari or IE but when you click edit it flips to MM's own rendering engine.
C3 was an improved rendering engine over Dreamweaver MX 2004 and the upgrade

I am currently working on a template that keeps to KISS so not to drive some
folks insane but can be maintained in C3. Just about to hit it with JAWS and
the ilk. I have had a couple students that rely on JAWS try it out and they

Have you looked at it in Firefox? Or Safari? It looks even further off ;)
Might want to not call the image in the background and use that to keep the
content down where you want it. I think it's cause you are relying on the
list of links in the top to push things down and the font renders awfully
I have come across some oddness in Safari (1.2.3 (v125.9) ) that I am not
sure is mentioned anywhere... If it is, my apologies.
I first noticed it with my little blog type play site. I was calling three
style sheets from a site I am working on. If I call one that is not there

Yes that is a great page... The fix was simply to point to a style sheet
that existed. The link I had to a blank one was broken. IE 5 displays both
pages the same, it is only Safari that puts in some odd margin's in the p.

insert the ul into the li above it.. Moz and others just ignore that

Have you looked at the other assistive technologies available?
Yes I work closely with our Office for Persons with Disabilities, even
presented at their Assistive Technology Fair last year. This year I will as
well and sounds like it will be even bigger than last year. There are some

Actually Canada has to accessibility requirements under any law. The
Canadian Government has the Common Look and Feel Guidelines and in there
they require WAI AA for all Federal Government sites (government workers in

Perhaps one of the biggest problems with accessibility is the lack of
affordable assistive technologies (AT)? I think W3 complaint code mixed with
some decent features should be all that is required on the developers end.
The government would be better off spending more time and resources on
