My sincere thanks to Richard for starting this thread and for all who have provided Links to find out more. Special thanks to George.

As an amazing coincidence I was last night asked to review the brief to develop a Wab page for Queensland Parents of People with a Disability. QPPD is a political advocacy organisation with major efforts in inclusion in education, training and employment. My wife Anne has worked her insides out for QPPD for a number of years, we have a son with Down Syndrome and my own visual impairment is now quite advanced.

Amoing Feorge's Links I found a site called Bobby at http://www.cast.org/bobby/. This allows you to rate any Web Site from the view point of accessibility and a report is provided. Maybe Max may care to run Mudcat through its paces.

Many thanks, John
