[Nfbwv-talk] FW: WV Secretary of State's website accessibility

[David Andrews]

Ed,

I only spent about 3 minutes on it.  I didn't see anything terrible 
-- but it could be better.  There are some "click here" links, which 
isn't good practice, if you do a links list, they aren't much use.

There are some main links on the first page, it would say elections, 
then be3low "select" which was also a link.  Couldn't see what it did.

I did go to elections, and it looked like stuff was laid out in a 
table.  This is not considered to be bad practice, table commands 
didn't work correct5ly, or table wasn't labeled properly, and this 
style hasn't been used in years!
