[nabs-l] Ah HA! I found the culperate!

[Chun Chao]

Dear Joshua:

During shopping season of last year between Thanksgiving and Christmas when
I was looking for laundry appliances because mine had worn out, I came
across an inaccessible website with one of the larger home improvement
companies as well
Namely, it was www.lowes.com and I reported the issue to the National Center
to have the issue looked into.
I have not revisited the website since the incident and as a result Lowes
lost me as a potential customer.
Thought I share the experience of running into an inaccessible website.

Regards,
C.C. Alan

I asked about Flash Websites, and why Jaws couldn't read them, in an earlier
thread!
Well: I've found the main culperate in inaccessible Websites!
www.wix.com
Wix has made all of their Websites, including this one, inaccessible with
screenreaders!
http://www.bibleway.ca
The site that I used in the earlier thread, www.altitudeworship.com is also
powered by Wix!
We need to do something about this!
You may think this is off topic for the list, because these two sites are
for churches, but I know of some colleges, that use this same company, to
make their Websites inaccessible.
Blessings, Joshua
