Good day everyone,

I am checking a website's accessibility with the WAVE evaluation tool. While I am using the online version of Wave it gives me the different results from the one I have installed in my Chrome. Does anyone know why this happens? I don't know which one should I report.

Thanks,

The Chrome extension evaluates the fully rendered version of the page
within the browser at the time the extension is run. The online version
evaluates only the initial state of the page. Both are accurate, but the
extension may give a better representation of full end user accessibility
issues.
