Norm,

Thanx... I just thought it extremely telling that Adobe's initial
response when discussing the accessibility of PDFs was to revert to
plain text. I appreciated you comments and insight today during the
Accessibility Training live event... keep up the good work!

Your observation about the Adobe access page is very convincing!

Subject: Is Bobby experiencing problems?
← Previous message | No next message

Hi All,

I received this comment via email:

"I went to run a Bobby test on the site you have mentioned below.
http://www.cast.org/bobby/ is a site that performs web accessibility tests
on webpages. This is the message I receive when I tried "Connection Error:
Bobby has experienced a problem connecting to this URL. Please try again."."

and am wondering if Bobby is experiencing problems??

Yet, when I tried www.webaccessguides.org on Bobby, it seemed to work fine.
So, I'm not sure why that error. Any thoughts? My rep is on the line here!

Cheers,
Glenda
