Howdy, all--

Those of you who work on Web sites or work with those who do might
like to know about BOBBY, a tool of the Center for Applied Special
Technology.

http://www.cast.org/bobby/

According to the home page:

"Bobby is a free service of CAST that will analyze single web pages
for their accessibility to people with disabilities. Bobby will also
examine a page's HTML to see if it is compatible with various web
browsers or HTML specifications."

Most excellent, and very thorough. I've run some of our current CIAS 
Web pages thru it just to get a feel for how it runs thru lower end 
browsers.

peace
misha
