Really something not related to accessibilty - however I hate seeing a URL
like:
http://www.devonfurnituremakers.org.uk/gallery.php
I prefer:
http://www.devonfurnituremakers.org.uk/gallery/
Simply in the root folder, create a file:
.htaccess
then:
--start--
rewriteengine on
rewriterule
Only had a quick look but what strikes me so far is that things go a bit
wrong at smaller window sizes (less than 1024 x 780) - pictures on the
members' pages stick out to the right and text on the member search page
spills out of the boxes on the left (in Firefox Opera).

Many thanks for your comments - much appreciated.
I will get on to the 'more' links and add the names.
Need some font-resize testing and improvements. Text is overflowing

Thanks Tim,
That's given me something to get stuck in to!!

Hi John,
Further to Tim's comments I think the JavaScript menu is a weak point. A
better solution would be to have the 'Members Name' and 'Type of Furniture'
options built in to the content in separate select boxes and then use
JavaScript to show one of them and hide the other.

Bob,
I'm not sure how hard your Captcha code is to programatically
recognise, but make sure that your not relying on sessions like this:
if($_SESSION['captcha_code'] == $_POST['user_code'])
because a robot spammer won't create a session, so its like comparing
to if they enter nothing in the
Captcha's are evil, not accessible, and a real pain for the end user.
Maybe use akismet (http://akismet.com)? If you look on the development

the akismet API (it's quite simple). Perhaps you could just pass the

Mike,
I've been suggesting the Question/Answer method to people for some time
and it's definitely my preferred method. It's so brilliantly simple yet
nobody really seems to use it. I guess there's a language issue that
might need addressing, but it's definitely an improvement on images.
