Accessibility of this Web site

We strive hard to make sure this site is accessible and complies with the Section 508 Web Accessibility Guidelines. This Web site is checked using the AccVerify program from HiSoftware. If you find any problems that we missed then please let us know by sending email to Matt Merrill. Please note that this site will not show up as perfectly accessible when using an accessibility checking program because we give many examples of bad HTML and Web techniques in our Aquatic Arts site and a few other pages.

Validation

In addition to checking for accessibility, we use the XHTML validator and CSS validator from the W3C to check for valid XHTML and CSS. Most pages are XHTML 1.0 Transitional.

Download your own version of AccVerify if you are at a UW campus or Wisconsin technical college
