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.

I believe SurveyGizmo (http://www.surveygizmo.com/) is a product that creates accessible web survey's. I had looked into this a few weeks back when we were looking for a product that generates accessible survey's. It looked good, unfortunately funding feel through :-(

I have been using SurveyGizmo as I too had heard good things about it in
terms of accessibility.

While the actual surveys that are generated appear to be fine in terms of
access, I am a little concerned about the backend.

Starting some time last year, SurveyGizmo added a new homepage design which
incorporates some AJAX-style features (specifically the account log in). I
have not tested this for accessibility. Similarly, the backend of the
product also uses some JavaScript features, but those look to be fairly
accessible at this time. But there again, I have not formally tested.

I'd be interested in hearing from others who have used this product,
especially those using it with screen readers.

Hi all,
There is a UPA article that describes the level of accessibility provided by
Survey Gizmo and SurveyMonkey, but the info is as of 2007.
http://www.upassoc.org/upa_publications/upa_voice/volumes/2007/april/access.html

I think I heard that one of the 2 tools mentioned improved their
accessibility after the article was published. I provided this info to
Ginger on the WAI list.
