Most sites fail S.508 testing even their best "Ivy league" Universities.

Yes, although I think a more to the point of his question is why such
sites render even when served as xhtml.
Tee, the problem is quite complicated and would take quite a few words

I totally agree with your point about accessible content, which is why we have
contributed towards Joe Clark's micropatronage project to raise money for
research into the production of standards, training and certification schemes
for captioning, audio description, subtitling, and dubbing.

You're talking to someone who deals with accessibility frustrations
every single day of her life.
I'd sure like to see that all spoken audio in electronic media (video

Yes, it is needed to reveal the sub-menus, and to create the "skip links",
but it is unobtrusive and it degrades well (the menu expands if there

That's not taking things to an extreme - it's a totally different argument

i am doing a complete redesign of my site. the menu on the current site is

Hmm, I've found this not to work in Firefox.. doesn't seem to allow legends

I've found legends very difficult to be styled cross browser - dumping the
legend and using a heading tag will allow much easier styl
