Eric I could not agree more. I found a site that I would love to be in a position to tell the devs what they need to do or direct them to a resource that would help them make their site more accessible. I think the site is built in html5 and java script. However, not being familiar with html5 I only see stuff that tells me about the java script and a butt-load of style sheet references. I should have kept up with all the html stuff, but unfortunately I have not and so my knowledge is pretty limited now. :) If you know where I can find a good set of references that could be shared please let me know.
Thanks, Oh and the site if your curious is, http://http://demo.synology.com:5000/webman/index.cgi On Apr 26, 2012, at 6:51 AM, erik burggraaf <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Christine, > > It's actually much cheeper to design things accessibly from the ground up. > Bolting on something later can get quite expensive.
