Versions one and three look like they "may" be accessible (I did not check
all of the pages), two and four look like they have problems. The little red
rap dude does not have an ALT attribute, neither does the menu bar. And the
<MARQUEE> is not standard HTML. It showed up sometimes in my browser (IE
6.0), but mostly did not work. In any case, moving text is problematic due
to the "flicker" requirements of 508.

Not sure what you are tying to accomplish, but I tend to dislike frames
(personal preference) and you seem to be able to manage a decent design with
tables in version one and three.

If you are simply looking for accessibility issues, why not run it through
Bobby first?

Subject: much needed assistance...please help


I'm doing a study that involves determining the benefits of accessible
online content designed using the Section 508 and WAI Guidelines for
adolescents with and without learning disabilities... But need experts
in web accessibility to check the pages for compliance/non-compliance so
as to verify site accessibility (hint, hint...).

In efforts to promote the benefits of accessibility to all learners
(and help out a starving, half-awake doc student), would someone be
willing to check these sites for a quick review?

Compensation can be in the form of chocolate e-cookies, candy .jpg's,
or whichever you prefer, or can see if I can find a vendor to
compensate...Please help?????

Thanks so much,
Christine
