Subject:508 compliant WebHelp - problems w Search and NS From:CRoeder -at- Primavera -dot- com To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Wed, 19 Oct 2005 10:50:41 -0400
Redundancy note: also posted to HATT, minus NS question
Has anyone developed, or even investigated, a solution for the fact
that full-text search is not available when generating compliant
WebHelp. Is anyone delivering this output as is, i.e. with the "Search"
that is basically a keyword index without the capability to actually
search on a string.
Also, need to know if anyone has developed a workaround
for the fact that 508 complaint output is not supported in Netscape.
I'd be appreciative of any information (general tips/gotchas) regarding the
use of the RoboHelp 508 compliant option, or alternative tools being used
to satisfy the requirements of accessibility for Help. Thanks.
