Dear ht://Check users, I proudly announce the release of ht://Check 1.2.3, which introduces important new features regarding Web accessibility. ht://Check is probably the first tool on the Web which makes possible to perform site-wide accessibility checks, in accordance with the principles of the University of Toronto's Open Accessibility Checks (OAC) project (http://oac.atrc.utoronto.ca/). Of course, ht://Check can't be as accurate as page specific automatic tools like Bobby and Torquemada; these are still essentials for evaluating the degree of accessibility of a page. However ht://Check gives web designers and maintainers another way to repair accessibility barriers on a website. At the moment, ht://Check accurately discovers the following barriers: - missing ALT (OAC #1) - ALT is the same as the file name (OAC #2) - ALT text is not shorter than 150 characters (OAC #3) - ALT text can't be empty if image is used as an anchor (OAC #7) - wrong Hx nesting (e.g.: h2 without h1 -OAC #37-41) - document language must be identified (OAC #48) - missing TITLE (OAC #50) - empty TITLE (OAC #51) - TITLE is not shorter than 150 characters (OAC #52) - images used in INPUT controls must have ALT text (OAC #58) - images used in INPUT controls must have valid ALT text (OAC #59) - images used in INPUT controls should have short ALT text (OAC #60) - images used in INPUT control - ALT text should not be the same as the file name (OAC #61) - deprecated use of the B element (OAC #116) - deprecated use of the I element (OAC #117). The PHP interface has been modified in order to search the database for accessibility repair purposes. In order to download the sources, please visit the Web site http://htcheck.sourceforge.net . Thank you. |

Dear ht://Check users, I proudly announce the release of ht://Check 1.2.2. New features include document type recognition (DOCTYPE) and storing, as well as META description and keywords of HTML documents. Sources have been strongly modified in order to be more robust and to support latest releases of the autotools (autoconf, automake and libtool). For more information, please visit the release notes and the changelog from the download section of the website http://htcheck.sf.net/ . Dear Debian users, the package will be updated by its maintainer Marco Nenciarini very soon. Sincerely, -Gabriele |
