[WSG] SEO vs. Accessibility

Hello list! I have a quick question for any accessibility and SEO mavens out there. It was recently brought to my attention that a few elements I have placed on a site that have text indented px to the left for accessibility might be viewed as a form of cloaking by some search engines. Is my

RE: [WSG] Help with mobile MIME type always fails test

Funny this should come up as I felt like being fussy a couple of weeks ago. If you happen to be building a site with dotNet (.NET) 2008 you can override the server MIME type inline by adding the following to the @Page directive: contenttype=application/xhtml+xml This comes in handy if you have a

[WSG] Video Accessibility Help

Hi List, I was just wondering what some of the best practices were these days for creating accessible video on the web. A few questions: 1) I know some Flash players can pull in captions, but which ones to use? 2) Are there any services out there that will scan your audio track and create a

Hi Kevin, Regardless of what you are declaring in your meta tags, the server will trump you here and serve out the page as it is configured to do so (as text/html), in which case you'll have to configure the server to serve the page out with correct mime type. I don't know what you are using

[WSG] Accessibility Testing

Hi WSG Friends! The company I work for is considering dropping WatchFire for testing because of the price. I'm really concerned about not being able to test code against specific accessibility guidelines like WCAG 1.0 or 2.0. Do any of you know of any cheaper (or free) applications that do just

[WSG] Safari: Inline-Block / Center Element Issue

Hi Guys, A collogue of mine came across a weird issue today on Safari regarding the alignment on inline-block level elements such as input and select within a ...wait for it...center element. We came up with a work-around (the most obvious being NOT to use the center element whenever humanly

RE: [WSG] Safari: Inline-Block / Center Element Issue

You find it difficult to avoid using a tag that was deprecated over a dozen years ago in HTML4 and doesn't exist at all in HTML5? Wow. Heh. I certainly don't find it difficult nor did I say where it was used (For all you know the site could be a decade old!). Regardless, all browsers appear

Your test page is using HTML5, so it's hardly a decade old -- and a quick run through the W3C Validator will tell you, and I quote, I copied it from original source to document issue better. DOCTYPE is irrelevant here. Okay, great. It's a Webkit issue. That is good to know. Thanks! So why you
