Barry,
Thanks for the info, I will see what they say and report back. If Derek
does his usual, we will get a gang together, find him, and armed with
voice recorders, give him the blind equivalent of happy slapping!
Cheers

Actually, Dave, I take it back about the Intranet thing being a problem
with the DDA - I'm a little tired. I've been thinking about the
intranet thing and I think they are under the same obligation as the
internet. The DDA states that an organisation has to make reasonable
adjustment to allow a disabled worker to do their job, and it must be
anticipatory. For your company to change their Intranet post DDA is, I
would say, definitely in breech of the DDA. I've just had another look
on the net and come up with
this:

ic_accessibleintranets.hcsp
I wonder if Derek is going to throw the gauntlet down again, as he tends
to do when I post to the list.

Subject: [access-uk] Inaccessible Internet/Intranet sites
Hi All,
My company has produced an Intranet site which is inaccessible. Does
anyone know of a link to a website that can test and report the sites
failings? I would also like to find any information concerning website
accessibility requirements that I can forward on to them. It annoys me
I have to do this as I work for a large company and they should already
know and be implementing the requirements.
Thanks in advance.
Dave
