Hello All, I made all of the suggested changes to the GrayBit [1] page/application -- downgrading to XHTML 1.0 Strict and correcting the font-size issue for IE (bugs passed along and added to the bug list) and I thank you for this. However, since I didn't hear from that many of you, I figured I'd continue this on one more time to solicit responses.
Does an anyone have any additional feedback, good, bad, or otherwise? Thank you. Sincerely, Mike Cherim http://green-beast.com/ http://accessites.org/ http://graybit.com/ <<< [1] PS. To anyone that missed my original posting, I have included it below: ----- Original Message ----- [...] "We just created a new tool and launched the beta interface [1]. It's a contrast accessibility tool of sorts, but different. It does some neat stuff. The best way to understand it is to just try it. Being it's in beta, we're keen on feedback. You can respond here or use our form [2]. We do know that it doesn't handle PNG transparencies as well as it could (in IE), and it will disable some site's javascripts (but still seems to serve its purpose all the same). It works on sites using CSS (hex code colors, color names, or RGB) but won't work well on older sites using tags'n'tables. But then again the people who make sites like that probably wouldn't have much interest in this anyway. The interface is new for me in a couple of ways. It's my first "fluid" site (I usually make fixed-width sites or jump right past fluid to elastic). It's also the first site I made to the XHTML 1.1 DTD. I'm sending it as application/xhtml+xml, but the browser is still processing the code as text/html (give me comments on this, please). It's also my first PHP-only site. I usually make PHP sites, but they have some PHP and some static mark-up. These pages are pure PHP, dynamic. First thing on the page is <?php and the last thing is ?>. Nary a break in between. You should find it very accessible and very usable. I took three days on this interface crossing my "t"s and dotting my "i"s."
