The key of accessibility is universal design = universal access.

The online tools:

We can add accessibility tools on web developer.

Table 1. Comparison of Web Accessibility
Sites	WAVE	Cynthia Says (WCAG)	Cynthia Says (Section 508)	ATRC
W3.org	no error	failed	passed	conditional pass WCAG 2.0 L2
WAI	no error	failed	passed	fail WCAG 2.0 L2
UniSA	1 error	failed	passed	conditional pass WCAG 2.0 L2
UCLA ATS	no error	failed	passed	fail WCAG 2.0 L2

My short summary:

Something wrong with Cynthia Says (WCAG validator)[?]; updated May 17, 2008: I guess it’s fixed now..
University should have a commitment for this.
Web accessibility needs human evaluation.
