Accessibility Testing Results
This site is inaccessible to those using a text browser and the player is only usable with a keyboard in certain browsers such as Internet Explorer. The text bubbles cannot be read with text to speech and in fact the whole site uses Flash so zooming and changes cannot be made. The contrast levels and readability are challenging with royal blue or pink on black.
