Accessibility Testing Results

The site is easy to use with a mouse but not all editing areas are accessible with a keyboard or screen reader. Once the photos are loaded and individual ones are chosen there is an area for writing and submission which is using plain text but the text to edit must be clicked on and this is not obvious. The site has good structure and is easy to read with good contrast levels and easy zoom.

#	Test	Score	Summary
1	Login, Signup and Other Forms Accessible		The standard Yahoo.com signup form is accessible and has good keyboard access with good labelling for screen reader users.
2	Image ALT Attributes		Not all images on this site offer alternative text as it depends on the user - this may cause problems for screenreader users and some photos have actions that need to be take rather than the photo description.
3	Link Target Definitions		All links, including images which would otherwise be ambiguous, have titles to uniquely identify them.
4	Frame Titles and Layout		No frames or iframes, which can be disorientating for screen-readers, are used in the design.
5	Removal of Stylesheet		The page is still understandable and functional when it is viewed as a linear document, with no styles.
6	Audio/Video Features		A text description can be set for items and if required a long section of text can be added.
7	Video/animations - audio descriptions		Text can be added to image descriptions but not audio.
8	Appropriate use of Tables		Tables are used to construct this site - this may cause some screenreaders to read the content in the wrong order although this appears to be handled correctly in most places.
9	Tab Orderings Correct and Logical		Tab order is in a logical and consistent top-to-bottom or left-to-right format.
10	Page Functionality with Keyboard		The website is fully accessible without the use of a mouse.
11	Accessibility of Text Editors		This site does not have a rich text editor.
12	Appropriate Feedback with Forms		The product provides suitable feedback when the user performs an action.
13	Contrast and Colour Check		No contrast issues.
14	Page Integrity when Zooming		The website maintains the layout and usability of all critical areas perfectly when zoomed.
15	Text size, style, blinking elements and Readability		The majority of text on the site is size ten, which is readable but may be uncomfortable for some.
