The official site for the summer Olympic games,
http://www.olympics.com, is embroiled in a lawsuit over
handicapped accessibility. In 1999, Bruce Maguire, a blind
Australian man lodged a complaint against the site. As of
this writing, the site still does not meet the requirements
for a disabled assistant browser to read it properly.

FOR SALE: ALT tags for your site. Cost: $2 million, backordered
with 12 months delivery. That's IBM's estimate to make their
Olympic.com Web site more accessible.

I took a look at http://www.way-out-west.co.uk after it was
mentioned in the e-commerce section of a Sunday newspaper.
The main frame was crippled by missing a dash from the closing
JS comment tag. I haven't yet received a reply from the designer.
I'm also finding SiteMeter webstats JS a frequent culprit in
crippling pages.

Jake
