Unfortunately the forward stripped Ginger's e-mail, so I'm responding to both lists in hopes she gets this.

Some time ago, someone posted to either the WebAIM list or the Knowbility list about http://508surveys.com/. This was more than a year ago. At the time, I took a poke at it and it seemed to do a pretty good job. At the time there were some issues with the markup that I though to be silly, but nothing egregious and certainly better than most other survey tools out there at the time.

I have not checked lately, but optimistically assume that they've at least improved a little. Could be a good spot to start.

Subject: Accessible online survey

Dear all,

I know that this might be a bit off topic but maybe someone can reply to
me via PM.
For a project regarding navigation for the blind and visually impaired
we would like to conduct an online survey. Since, obviously, most of the
participants require accessible web we want to use a survey service that
offers good access for them.
Does anyone here know of such a service online and could point me out to
them?

I appriciate your help!

Thanks in advance for your efforts!

Kind regards

Ginger
