If you think opening new windows on each new link is "accessible", you have
a lot to learn.

You've multiposted this now to at least three groups. Where would you
like your answers?

Are you doing this on purpose because you like to get flamed or something?
_on this post of yours_
- multiposting,
- posting in html instead of plain text,

_on your pages_
- the concept of a splash screen at the so called front af a site sucks
and is not user friendly at all (all I get to see[1] are two links; one
leading to the page I was after presumably and another one for a ticker of
some sort)

What so accessible about it? Though not completely bad [2], I see nothing
special. At least the first page after the splash screen validates. But I
see nothing special that should be labeled 'accessible' as if that is the
utmost purpose of the page markup. Love to see what was the inaccessible
version[3].


[1] Either in Lynx or in any browser without graphics (no images and what
ever more)
[2] Except a few unnecessary <br />'s I spotted and the new windows that
you want my browser to open every time I click a link (which is far from
adding to accessibility)
[2] Not really.

I take that back:
- fixed width design, waisting a lot of my viewport space so I have to
scroll more than necessary had you designed fluid?
- tiny fonts, so I have to enlarge the whole thing (which in Opera leads
to horizontal scrollbar easily, because, hmm, fixed width design, yes)?
- fixed font sizes, so I couldn't enlarge them if viewed with IE?

So, yes, I can access the site, but you make it damned hard to use it.
Better rethink your priorities.

You present your site as "accessible", yet it is not. You are a liar.

well, he is also Italian. Maybe he is just using the wrong English word.
Something like "viewable" or "visible" might be more like what he (or
she?) meant, rather than accessible, which has a very specific meaning in
English and in a Web context.

Just speculating.

Dutch doesn't have the word accessible (or any variant of it), but Italian
certainly does. Look at the righthand bottom corner of his blog. It says
'Il tuo sito è accessibile?' which I immagine means something like 'Is
your site accessible?' Why would the Italian word, derived from Latin, be
anything else than the English word, derived from Latin[1]. In this case I
think he thinks too lightly about accessibility. Either that, or he found
a way to spam newsgroups, that is hard to notice as such.

Me too

[1] I know, this is not a very scientific argument.

Mine is not a spam. If you don't accept my website no problems.
I posted my website to check, I accept all kinds of opinions.
If you don't believe this, excuse me but isn't my problem.

best regards
