Re: web page help



Sorry, rather than use the word accessibility, maybe I should've said
ADA compliant. There are a standard set of guidelines to make web pages
compliant for all disability level and needs.

This is what I was refering to.

I can't find my reference right now, but it was in one of the last two or
three
issues of Syllabus magazine.

There can be accessibility problems from one site to another on-campus, for
some reason (at least here at UC Riverside). But if there is a problem with
the outside world accessing your web page, you should discover this when
you try to send it through the W3C validator. I've sent web pages with
mistakes in the URLs, and the validator tells you that it can't find your
page.
