Even though the site is live we still have a host of usability and accessibility issues to take care of, and other functionality to put in place, so there is still a lot of work to do. Most pages validate the XHTML 1.0 Strict which is something that I am really happy about. We have some skip links about a great sans serif font stack, but we still need to accessify the main menu, add in a font resizer, PDF accessibility issues to take care, and other things.  At some point I will do a full accessibility review too.  We have our work cut out for us.

If you wander your way there and you have any questions, comments, or suggestions please use our feedback for and let us know. We are looking for an keyboard accessible menu module as well as great WYSIWYG editor too.

I really love this Code Bubble IDE for Java from the CS department at Brown University. I would love to have this sort of environment for my web development. Adobe take heed. This Code Bubble thingy rocks! =)

My preferences are for it to:

• create standards compliant and semantically correct code
• have the ability for users to copy and paste over their content and for the editor to strip the tags/formatting that are not acceptable and keep the ones that are (white-listing?)
• be able to add and remove formatting options as well as rename the labels for the formatting options, especially the headers (via the administrative interface is preferable).
• have at least 2 levels of permission to the editor’s features
• accessible interface (would be nice)

Please help me keep my hair! =)
