Re: [WSG] Login/password app?
Hi Brooke, I used .htaccess as a way to control this aspect as a simple solution before you find a more robust one as needed. I suggest trying it out and see what you think. Option I = Manually put it together via a tutorial http://www.freewebmasterhelp.com/tutorials/htaccess/ Option II = htadmin a prepared solution = $5 http://www.htadmin.com/ After spending the wopping $5 a long time ago and saw later that it was also easy to replicate . depending on skill level.

Re: [WSG] How to send two values to javascript

Re: [WSG] intuitive text resizer for accessibility toolbar
Hi Felix, you are right in everything you write..but, there are always exceptions, in that we need to (at Veteran's Affairs) cater for visitors accross the board. We need to consider the realestate taken up and the text size which are oposite forces and so we need to find a happy medium. My idea is to have a basic font size to allow a reasonable amount of content with less scrolling and then in an accessibility toolbar give the visitor the oportunity to increase the font size in the main content area. This to me seems like a decent compromise. I am open to correction on that, but it seems fair though. So I will still need to place a text resizing mechanism to cover that government standard for the site. While awaiting the responses from the list I came up with a simple solution using a few lines of JS. With the + button, the visitor can increase the (h1 to 4 and p) tags to double the size in the main content area and the - button will return it to normal. I worked on the assumption that lower that normal font sizes are unneccessary but as a standard we are obliged to offer a larger text size alternative, and one that differs from the cnrt+/- that applies to the whole site.

Re: [WSG] intuitive text resizer for accessibility toolbar
Ya gotta love the WSG, This is exactly why I post here, where people respond with decent honest answers with out too much in the way of restriction. For that I thank you! :-) All right, so I exaggerated on the Government Standard, you got me.;-) I am still unsure on how to proceed, so bare with me a little longer. Even though I agree on the fixed reasonable font size but, with some sites there is an over stuffing of content and we have managed to trim the content owners down on this and so arrive at an agreed amount that if fixed at a larger font will turn the page into more than necessary scrolling which in the end leads to a percentage not willing to scroll too much. (no there are not masses of content). So even faced with the official W3C standards we still have to compromise whether we like it or not and so I ask the pointed question - What is the happy medium? Please don't quote the various Standards bibles because I am not about that, we as web developers need to live with in these standards and if a few conflict with each other then that is what we can come here to discuss and agree on. (correct me if I am wrong). So do I approach the powers that be and indicate it is unnecessary to have this option or do I find a happy medium like I suggested in the previous post? (my aim being to accommodate the W3C/ Accessibility / IA / etc Standards and funnily enough provide a decent site for the intended audience). Yours Faithfully, Ben PS: Side Question: does everyone else see multiple entries for each of my posts or does this only appear spasmodically on gmail? (I only send it once). Is there a setting to change?

So I will still need to place a text resizing mechanism to cover that government standard for the site. I'm not sure what you mean by government standard here. There is some debate about whether text resizer widgets are a good idea at all, and I don't think that there is any government standard that explicitly requires them. There are a variety of arguments about this, but a couple quick ones are: is the widget usable without JavaScript? (This is required for the site to meet W3C WCAG 1.0 Priority 1 Guidelines). Is it usable without cookies? How can you inform a visitor that the widget exists, and what it will do, if they cannot read the text on the site to begin with? What is usually required from a standards perspective, at minimum, is that a site use relative font sizes in a way that allows a visitor to increase the font size of the site using browser controls. Some very respectable sites provide a link to increase text size that offer simply an explanation of how to increase the text size in different browsers, rather than trying to change the size of the fonts being sent to the browser. [...] I worked on the assumption that lower that normal font sizes are unneccessary but as a standard we are obliged to offer a larger text size alternative, and one that differs from the cnrt+/- that applies to the whole site.

I'd have to agree with Felix on this one, particularly for a site whose target market includes large numbers of seniors. Seniors are more likely to be unfamiliar with how web browsers work than the younger population, and as a result, they will be less likely to know how to change the font size in their browsers, and they will also be less likely to understand the function of font resizing widgets on a page, no matter how you present them. And given that deteriorating vision is such a common issue for that population, the best approach for a site targeting that market would be to use a large enough default size that most users can use it. To do this, I would seriously consider following Felix's recommendation of leaving the base size as you found it.

[WSG] dl v table for form layout
Hi all, I am having a discussion with colleagues here at work (won't mention our site as it stinks) about the best way forward for form layouts. I have one person saying he will continue to use tables till otherwise informed. I have another who uses none of the above, which you can imaging is not that good to look at with everything butting up against each other. His other suggestion was to add nbsp's to move things about. I like to use the definition list with Labels. Now I know the dl I am using is not being used exactly as it was originally used (good point), but I say it is 100 times better than tables. Can I get a WSG response on the best format to layout a form.
