Hi Mike, Bobby is an accessibility checker with a huge chip on it's shoulder.
http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/html/en/index.jsp In my opinion it supposes too much and is basically a self righteous piece of rubbish. Take www.gt.nsw.gov.au for example. http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/bobbyServlet?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gt.nsw.go v.au%2F&output=Submit&gl=wcag1-aaa&test= We went to a huge amount of trouble to do everything right on this site, including a style switcher for various visual options. Because of that and some other absolute crap it tells us that repair is needed. No! Wrong. Bad bobby. Bad tool.
