Re: toilet map doesn't support Macs
This is not good enough for publicly funded web resources. I sent an email and also suggested they refer their web designer to Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) http://www.w3.org/WAI/ I just tried it with Mac (OS8.6) and Netscape 4.5 - it works well enough to locate public toilets in our district. A couple of pictures slightly overlapped the text, but the maps, zooming, and showing the toilets all worked. Any problems with Mac/Netscape probably arise from their choice of MapInfo as the engine - it may use IE/Microsoft special features in the HTML code.

toilet map doesn't support Macs
Hi all, Back on the ugly subject of government websites not supporting Macs, I just came across this site: http://www.toiletmap.gov.au/ which at first amused me, until I went to this page where it states that the site is not useable by Macs or using Netscape http://www.toiletmap.gov.au/browser_info.html (I was using IE on the windows box at the time...) Anyone other than myself interested in emailing them to let them know what we think? Cheers Meg
Re: toilet map doesn't support Macs
At first I though toilets yeah right does it really matter .this is terrible...there she is, Granny out with her friends, her iBook her mobile and her incontinence. Where can she go...well not http://www.toiletmap.gov.au/ best look for a Macca's sign. But then.. would the site be there at all if people didn't want/need it. So yeah I do think it's worth contacting them about it Yvonne Meg Travers wrote: Hi all, Back on the ugly subject of government websites not supporting Macs, I just came across this site: http://www.toiletmap.gov.au/ which at first amused me, until I went to this page where it states that the site is not useable by Macs or using Netscape http://www.toiletmap.gov.au/browser_info.html (I was using IE on the windows box at the time...)
