Bobby test on your site
This page does not meet the requirements for Bobby Approved status. Below is a list of 1 Priority 1 accessibility errors found: - Provide alternative text for all images. (1 instance)
Line 16
--- End of test ----
Plus you have a number of Errors on the page See Screen Shot Attachment. The Errors are:
01) Username - Box not visible
02) Password - Box not visible
03) Menu Item 1 | Menu Item 2 | Menu Item 3 - not visible |
First off it is just a layout mockup, there are no alt tags or title tags on any elements, there will be on the final version though.
There is no username or password input boxes yet, I was just laying up where they will go.
Also, what abomination of a browser are you using? What ever it is it is no-where near standards compliant. The site renders fine in Firefox2, Firefox 3, Opera, Safari, Epiphany and as far as I know IE7 (although I don't have IE to test it on). Are you using IE 6 or something?
I can't develop for IE because I don't own a single windows computers and therefore I don't have IE, but I do code to the w3c international standards so I would recommend you choose a browser which supports those standards.
I have to code to the standards because I have no way of checking in IE to add extra code to deal with IE quirks.
I am not trying to be flippant and I appreciate the feedback but I can only code to browsers I can physically use and the standards as set out by w3c.

Just had another look and judging by the fact that you don't have support for transparency in png files, I am presuming you are in IE 6? You really should upgrade to the latest version of IE to avoid security issues or better yet switch to Firefox or Opera which both comply to the relevant standards.
