Our committee for web site review is considering having our site move
toward Bobby accessibility standards compliance. I've looked at a few
sites with the Bobby logo. Now I'm wondering, do some of you have
conforming sites, and if so, could you share your URLs?
Also, are Flash and Fireworks acceptable to Bobby? When using a plain
graphic image, is it enough to have an alt tag describe the image, or
does the tag have to explain what the user is supposed to see if he
clicks on it?
>From looking at some sites, it appears that font tags are out and linked
style sheets or classes are used instead...
Any comments or advice? Do you think library sites, like federal sites,
will soon be required to be Bobby approved? Thanks for your comments.
