Andreas With regard to accessibility and usability testing, I'm very interested in your comments about Deaf users in particular. Especially relating to navigation, including Flyouts and Dropdowns.
Did the Deaf users you interviewed indicate why they had a preference for drop-downs? >From a usability/accessibility perspective, what made this type of navigation more appealing to them? What accessibility/usability issues did they have with the navigation you were testing (can we have a link to view it?) How many users with 'hearing disabilities' did you interview, and what was the range of deafness - ie hearing impaired to culturally/signing Deaf? All the best, Lisa Herrod -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Boehmer [Addictive Media] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 4 August 2005 12:55 PM To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: RE: [WSG] New front page for http://abc.net.au/ Actually we have done some usability testing with a range of disabled users recently. The site we tested did not have any dropdowns, however in particular users with hearing disabilities and cognitive disabilities asked for dropdowns to be added. ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ****************************************************** ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
