Perhaps not, since they're apparently about to phase out support for it:
Hi Carl,
I also don't have a definitive answer - just another suggested tool.
I use the Colour Contrast Analyser from VisionAustralia -

Hi Emily,
Firstly the problem you describe might be your browser. I'm using
Safari on a Mac and the desired effect appears to occur, whether I use
the back button or click Home again. So this might be the reason your

Good idea, but please remember that for someone with problems of

this, and on a bad day I find them completely unusable.

Hi Tee,
If I've got this right, you've got a short navigation section in the
header, then your main content, then more links at the bottom. In that
case, instead of Skip to to access the lower menu, why not use More
Options, or something similar?
FWIW, my totally non-tech husband would be
Thank you Benjamin. You'd think I might have noticed that the inner
object has the wrong file name - I must have been working too long!
Thanks for the links, too - very helpful.

I understood that the object tag is supported by all major modern

I've been looking at some of my sites with a view to making them more

There's one called Orca, which run on a GNOME desktop - I don't know if
it's available for other desktops. I've never actually tried it - it's
on my to-do list! I'd be interested to hear how you get on with it -
e-mail me off-list.

Hi all,
I apologise if this is off-topic, but I'd really appreciate some advice.
I have clients who insist they want background music on their Web site.
I've tried to dissuade them, but without success. What is the most
acceptable/least intrusive method of doing this? UK licensing
Hi David,
Afraid I have to agree with Bob about the blue against the brown of the
banner.
I also have a problem with the double border on the menu items, combined
with the underlining of the links - too many lines too close together.
I have neurological problems, which may partly account
Hi David,
Great improvement, thank you. You wouldn't believe just how much that
improves the usability for me.

I agree with Andrew. I'd find it far less confusing to enter my country
first, rather than in the middle of the address. (Personally, I also
find having state before city very strange.)

I've looked at it on Firefox and Galeon on Linux, and it's definitely
white on both. Nice design; very clean and easy on the eye. I have
several weird neurological problems and really appreciate simplicity and
elegance in design - much easier to use.
Happy New Year!

Hi Jerome,
I had the same problem some time ago - so long ago, I'm no longer sure
exactly what actually fixed it. However, I think the answer, or part of

Hi Bob,
I think it must be something odd about IE7. I've just tried your link
in FF3 and Galeon on Linux, and FF3, IE8, Safari 4 and Opera 10 on
Windows. In every case the border appears around the entire masthead,
not just the third div.
