Accessibility problems

I've mailed this to wsc at wmdb dot org and didn't get a reply, so I copied the mail content here, hoping somebody will see it.


Accessibility problems in http://wsc.wmdb.org/

1. The navigation box is an image map which totally relies on CSS to work. There is no text alternatives, so people cannot navigate the website if the CSS is disabled.

Solution: Provide the text alternative like the following, or at least convert those <area> tags into <a> tags.
<style type="text/css">#nav {display: none;}</style>

<div id="nav">Navigation:
<ul>
<li><a href="/index.php" title="Main Page">Main Page</a></li>
<li><a href="/about.php" title="About">About</a></li>
<li><a href="/rules.php" title="Rules">Rules</a></li>
<li><a href="/partic.php" title="Participants">Participants</a></li>
<li><a href="/results.php" title="Result">Result</a></li>
<li><a href="/regist.php" title="Registration">Registration</a></li>
<li>Jury</li>
</ul></div>

2. All images in the website have no alt texts.

Solution: Add them. This will provide text alternatives to images.

I may find more in the future, but I hope these will be fixed soon. Thanks. --Explorer09 03:14, 6 February 2010 (UTC)


Hi Explorer, Balee got your e-mail but he apparently hates you and doesn't care about accessibility, so your efforts are in vain. --Vladimir 08:09, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
