accessibility problem

[detlef_b]

Is there a way to add the abbreviation and acronym tags to a text when editing
the text with contribute? This is very important if the html file should
conform the web accessibility standards... any idea how to solve this?

and - the tables inserted with Contribute don't show the caption and th tags or
the summary attribute.
For links there is no way to add the title or an acceskey attribute. The same
with images: no title and no longdesc attributes.

So - no WAI standards with contribute... :(

Yeah unfortunately Contribute has no way of allowing the user to insert <abbr>,
<acronym>, title, or longdesc. :(

The image element can only have ALT applied to it. Hopfully these things'll be
something they include in the next release.

Yes - accessibility is very important - the tables in Contribute too have
problems here.
Together with support for forms in Contribute, no ReadOnly flags when
Dreamweaver checks in the files ...
this would be a nice version 3.5...

I agree. The <acronym> and <abbr> tags are important accessibility tags that I
need. Our organization has just rolled out Contribute and I'm disappointed that
the feature is not available. Is this something that can be developed and added
on to Contribute?

I also noticed you cannot add title elements to a link tag. Is there an
alternate solution?
