Further to my last comment. The theming in Magento is very powerful and
allows you to do anything that you would like to / need to. Take the time to
learn it (there is a lot to learn) and you will see that you are not limited
in any way as to what you can do.
Cheers

Subject: [WSG] SPRI accesibility

Anybody familiar with SPRI accessibility from Spain?

Is this something similar to Section 508 in US, DDA of Australia and UK?

I want to assist a customer who purchased my Magento theme whose  
client requires website  be conformance with SPRI, but she didn't tell  
me any info regarding SPRI and what priorities are to be conformance  
with and I can't read Spanish. I am presuming that it's not likely  
that entire site needs to meet all three priorities per the SPRI  
requirement yet I couldn't get any info from her. My assumption is,  
she is clueless as well. The theme she purchased meets priority 2  
except "E823 [WAI 3.5 (AA)] Nest headings properly" which I don't  
think important and it's quite impossible to fix this in a template  
driven eCommerce site or a blog (just look at all WordPress blogs, you  
know what I meant). Likely pass most checkpoint in priority 3 but I  
never run the validation on priority 3 for Magento sites I built.

It appears that her client bases the accessibility check solely on the  
errors validator found. And this is the validator they use.
ttp://www.sidar.org/hera/index.php.en
In that site, there are three  3 priority checkpoints failed which I  
think are judgement call - this is just the homepage, likely more  
errors to be found in other pages.

Checkpoint 9.5 -

Provide keyboard shortcuts to important links (including those in  
client-side image maps), form controls, and groups of form controls.  
[Priority 3]

Checkpoint 10.4Until user agents handle empty controls correctly,  
include default, place-holding characters in edit boxes and text  
areas. [Priority 3]

Checkpoint 10.5
         Until user agents (including assistive technologies) render  
adjacent links distinctly, include non-link, printable characters  
(surrounded by spaces) between adjacent links. [Priority 3]
