The Illinois Functional Web Accessibility Evaluator 1.0 (FAE) has been released with new and updated accessibility rules based on the iCITA Best Practices [1 to help web developers create HTML resources that are usable by people with disabilities.
FAE is a free service provided by the University of Illinois as a public service to support the creation of functionally accessible web resources to comply with Section 508 [2] and W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines [3] requirements . New reporting features let you archive up to 5 reports for as long as you want and as always you can still send URLs of web accessibility reports to developers and administrators for review without them needed to create an account. http://fae.cita.uiuc.edu Sign up for your new FREE account at: http://fae.cita.uiuc.edu/accounts/register/ Signing up for an account will let you test entire websites, instead of just one web page. NOTE: If you had an account on the old version of FAE you will need to create a NEW account on FAE 1.0. The new version of FAE uses a different web application framework than the previous system and we were not able to migrate the old database.
