Hi all,

My friend is taking an M.I.S. class at the University of Arizona, and
they are building a website. They just found out today that 20% of
their grade will be accessibility. Of course my friend is excited
because she'll have me as a tester haha. But I'm curious about
whatever program or site you all use that tests for accessiblity? I've
seen it mentioned here, but can't remember what it is.

Thanks in advance!

Oh yeah, I'm really excited at the emphasis they put on accessibility.
She said the professor even talked about the percentage of the
population they'd be alienating if their site wasn't accessible. I'll
be sending her to WebAIM for pointers. ;)
