Hi Tom, Interesting point :) Code level conformance is important, don't get me wrong, but it is just one facet. "The gargle is fruit bear" is a sentence that parses according to the rules of English, yet fails comprehensibility. A human analyst has to make that call. Now, as to tools :) I use Total Validator - the pay-for-license pro version does a reasonable job of code level conformance checking against WCAGs 1 and 2 (my area of interest). It's not perfect (I don't know of a tool that does not yield false positives - anyone?) but it gives a good rough indication of issue numbers. Best regards, Andrew Andrew Boyd [email protected] On 24/02/2012, at 2:58 AM, Tom Donehower <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > Anyone know of any tools for helping to test section 508 and ADA compliance? > > Best, > > -- > -Tom > ------------ > 2012 IA Summit > March 21 - 25, 2012 > Hyatt Regency New Orleans, LA > ----- > When replying, please *trim your post* as much as possible. > *Plain text, please; NO Attachments > > Searchable Archive at http://www.info-arch.org/lists/sigia-l/ > ________________________________________ > Sigia-l mailing list -- post to: [email protected] > Changes to subscription: http://mail.asis.org/mailman/listinfo/sigia-l ------------ 2012 IA Summit March 21 - 25, 2012 Hyatt Regency New Orleans, LA ----- When replying, please *trim your post* as much as possible. *Plain text, please; NO Attachments Searchable Archive at http://www.info-arch.org/lists/sigia-l/ ________________________________________ Sigia-l mailing list -- post to: [email protected] Changes to subscription: http://mail.asis.org/mailman/listinfo/sigia-l
