RE: [WSG] Mobile Page Passes but MIME Type Fails

2010-06-16 Thread Spellacy, Michael
As I mentioned earlier, try checking to see what MIME type the server is
returning the page as. That may be the issue.

Arrrgh! Thanks for the attempt but it still warns on the MIME type after
the
change suggested. I guess I can move on but can anyone tell me what the
issue is???

[WSG] Mobile Validator Error Messages

2010-06-16 Thread Lesley Lutomski

Hi All,

I've been looking at some of my sites with a view to making them more 
mobile-friendly, and as a first step, decided to run them through the 
W3C validator.  (http://validator.w3.org/mobile)


I'm confused, because it keeps throwing up the "critical failure" of 
"The image does not match its supposed format."  Please can anyone 
explain why this message occurs, and how to fix it?


Most, but not all, of the affected images are jpegs taken on my digital 
camera.  However, other images taken with the same camera pass without 
problem.  They all have the same .jpg extension, so I'm at a loss as to 
what could be causing the problem.


Any help will be most gratefully received!

Lesley

[WSG] RE: Video Accessibility Help

2010-06-16 Thread Foskett, Mike
Hi Mike,

I'd recommend the JW player for delivering Flash video: 
http://www.longtailvideo.com/

An example of an accessible result can be found on my own site: 
http://websemantics.co.uk/resources/embedding_flash_video/

I'm unaware of any service that'll create srt captions.
If you find one please let me know.

A text transcript should be considered essential.


I hope that helps.

Subject: [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 captioned file for you (.srt, etc.) to feed into your player?
3) If you do succeed in creating captioned video do you also have to
create a transcript of the video for those users who may not have Flash
installed (or may not be able to access Flash using JAWS)?
4) Would providing just a transcript of the video, be all that is needed
to meet basic accessibility requirements?

Thanks in advance! I love this list!
