Hey Donna :o)
Geeky, huh? Very well.
The Accessibility Statement is
fairly generic (an example is here www.aidgc.com.au/accessibility.html ) and is based on an amanlgamation of various
guru's and government's access pages. So the geek factor is probably high, but
for politeness I'll refer to this a 'dry' instead of geek.
:oP
In terms of letting people know,
again, I'm disagreeing with Terrance, because I've come across the same strong
negative reaction from the few people who *do* know how to use it. I guess maybe
with everyone out there we can come up with a great way to do this.
Cheers,
R :o)

>> Yes, it is still worth it
because those people who do know really, really appreciate it. They *hate* it
when a site doesn't allow them to resize the font. Those who I've spoken with
have a much stronger attachment to sites that work for them, which should be
important to all clients.
>> I've not figured out how
to let people know about it apart from showing anyone who comments that the text
size on a site is too small. I also haven't figured out how to tell people about
this feature on a site - 'accessibility' is probably not a great label.
>> That said, can I rewrite
your accessibilty statement for you (it's a bit passive and
geeky)?:
>> "Does the text look too
small to you? This site contains 'relative fonts' which can easily be made
larger or smaller as you need. If you are using Internet Explorer, you can do
this by selecting 'View>Text size>Largest'. "
