tool to validate Web pages and also evaluate their accessibility.

Presenter: Greg Gay, Accessibility Technology Resource Center, University 
of Toronto

used to review the accessibility of Web pages based on a variety 
international accessibility guidelines. You can either use the online 
version to check Web pages or download a version to run on your own 
computer It checks page accessibility against several international 
standards, and, for now at least, is the only free tool to check 
accessibility against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.0.
