Re: Contrast Testing in MS Word

Hi,
As a screen reader user, is it possible to also have the color picker use color names, or have a different color picker on the page that uses color names? The color names it would use would be the ones browsers comonly recognize, and the hex values would be the default hex values browsers use for the names. And I think I may have a link to that information somewhere.

Thanks.

Jim

We just now published several updates and improvements to our contrast checking tool - http://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/

Feedback is very welcome.
