[blindlaw] Word varification

[ckrugman at sbcglobal.net]

Unfortunately, there are at times discrepancies in what is heard on the 
alternative and what appears on the screen. On some sites the audio quality 
of the alternative is garbled to create an item that appears similar to what 
is on the screen in an audio form as the text of the word verification on 
the screen is not always that clear. The whole issue of word verification or 
captcha does not comply with web accessibility guidelines and needs to 
addressed either from a legislative standpoint or through litigation to 
resolve this issue.
