Completely agree with most of the comments. Accessibility ensures that the site is usable, not just for disabled users but for ALL your users.
It should come at no extra cost and only if the designer goes out of their way to deliver an inaccessible site does it become a problem. Adding alt attributes, using semantic HTML, ensuring that JavaScript isn't used for critical functionality etc shouldn't be nice to have's for the client, they should be built in as standard by any reputable web designer. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dave Woods http://www.dave-woods.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 08/10/2007, Chris Wilson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > McLaughlin, Gail G wrote: > > We always ask the client if they require that the site comply > > with accessibility.
