About this report

To be Bobby Approved, a page must pass all of the Priority 1 accessibility checkpoints established by the WAI. For more information on the report, please read "How to Read the Bobby Report".




Priority 1 Accessibility

This web page does not contain any Priority 1 accessibility errors that Bobby can detect. However, certain items require human judgment; these are listed below. Please review these items; if none of these apply to your page, it qualifies for Bobby Approved status.

User Checks

User checks are triggered by something specific on the page; however, you need to determine whether they apply. Bobby Approval requires that none of them apply to your page. Please review these 4 item(s):

  1. If an image conveys important information beyond what is in its alternative text, provide an extended description. (2 instances)
    Lines 16-18: <img src="women-logo-small.gif" width="166" height="114" alt= "Women's Center logo. It shows dark and light faces in profile, suggesting inclusiveness and interconnectedness." border="0">
    Lines 115-117: <p> <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer"><img src= "valid-html401.gif" width="88" height="31" alt="Valid HTML 4!" border= "0"></a></p>
  2. If style sheets are ignored or unsupported, are pages still readable and usable?

  3. If a table has two or more rows or columns that serve as headers, use structural markup to identify their hierarchy and relationship. (1 instance)
    Line 13: <table title="this table provides a visually contrasting background">
  4. If you use color to convey information, make sure the information is also represented another way.

The following 4 item(s) are not triggered by any specific feature on your page, but are still important for accessibility and are required for Bobby Approved status.

  1. Use the simplest and most straightforward language that is possible.

  2. If ASCII art is present, consider substituting it with an accessible image.

  3. Identify any changes in the document's language.

  4. If you can't make a page accessible, construct an alternate accessible version.

If the Priority 1 issues listed do not apply to your page, then it qualifies as Bobby Approved and you are entitled to use the Bobby Approved icon. To obtain the icon and learn how to place it in your page, visit the Icon Guidelines page on the CAST web site.


Priority 2 Accessibility

For a higher level of accessibility you may also want to examine Priority 2 items. This web page does not contain any Priority 2 accessibility errors that Bobby can detect. However, certain items require human judgment; these are listed below.

User Checks

6 Priority 2 issue(s) that Bobby has identified are presented below:

  1. Add a descriptive title to links when needed.

  2. Check that the foreground and background colors contrast sufficiently with each other.

  3. If this gif image is animated, make sure it does not contain fast or distracting motion. (2 instances)
    Lines 16-18: <img src="women-logo-small.gif" width="166" height="114" alt= "Women's Center logo. It shows dark and light faces in profile, suggesting inclusiveness and interconnectedness." border="0">
    Lines 115-117: <p> <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer"><img src= "valid-html401.gif" width="88" height="31" alt="Valid HTML 4!" border= "0"></a></p>
  4. Make sure header elements are not used only for bold text.

  5. Mark up any quotations with the Q and BLOCKQUOTE elements.

  6. Use style sheets to control layout and presentation wherever possible.

The following 7 item(s) are not triggered by any specific feature on your page, but are still important for accessibility.

  1. Where it's possible to mark up content (for example mathematical equations) instead of using images, use a markup language (such as MathML).

  2. Make sure your document validates to formal published grammars.

  3. Group related elements when possible.

  4. Is there a site map or table of contents, a description of the general layout of the site, the access features used, and how to use them?

  5. Make sure that all link phrases make sense when read out of context.

  6. Is there a clear, consistent navigation structure?

  7. Use the latest technology specification available whenever possible.
