I find some of these comments quite bizarre.
Section 508 has been around, for what, 20 years?
And using lynx to see how a document is rendered was used quite a bit, for both some accessibility assessment, and also SEO.
I can definitely see how difficult this can be as an after-thought, but higher-ed should know better.
This is not a new requirement.
- talmand 7y agoI always understood that Section 508 applied only to US Federal agencies and any third-party products they make use of.
- dillonmckay 7y agoIf they are receiving federal monies (student loans and grants), they must comply.
- ineedasername 7y agoI still used to use lynx on a semi-regular basis until modern frameworks resulted in sites that were simply not usable.
