RE: [WSG] Mobile sites [SEC=UNOFFICIAL]
UNOFFICIAL Hi Grant, My thoughts on this are (assuming you're rebuilding an existing site): Check your site statistics/analytics - look at the range of devices accessing the site and what they're looking at - are there some pieces of content which aren't being accessed from handheld devices? If you're seeing a consistent spread of mobile access then, unless your site is going to chew up their bandwidth, you should be fine with a responsive design. If you're seeing that only a small subset of your site is getting mobile hits then you could look at streamlining this into a specific mobile site with its own navigation.

Of course, setting up a separate mobile site requires additional work and therefore expense. I would be grateful for comments.

RE: [WSG] Jaws Web Page Font Alignment Problem [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
UNCLASSIFIED Hi Marvin, I'm not sure I'd expect the alignment to be read out by Jaws - alignment is something I would regard as a "presentational" element, one without semantic value, i.e. it doesn't convey any meaning it just makes the layout look better for sighted users.

RE: [WSG] Google 'Alexander Calder' theme [SEC=UNOFFICIAL]
UNOFFICIAL Interesting - I don't have access to Chrome at work - but in FireFox it moves slowly and gracefully and has a drop-shadow (missing in IE8) reflected below the search box - so they have taken some time to do some rather classy work Enid -Original Message- From: li...@webstandardsgroup.org [mailto:li...@webstandardsgroup.org] On Behalf Of grant_malcolm_bai...@westnet.com.au Sent: Friday, 22 July 2011 4:16 PM To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: [WSG] Google 'Alexander Calder' theme Hello, Today's Google home page theme seems to be a very good example of progressive enhancement. The mobile graphic is non-interactive in IE7 but looks fine. In Chrome, however, the graphic swings about in response to mouse movements (as does its shadow, not present for IE7). Could anyone advise: (i) what technologies were used for this (canvas, etc.), and (ii) whether it is possible to save a working copy of the page locally in order to study its function (I've never had luck doing this with Google themes).
