[Athen] Accessible CAPCTCHA

[Glenda Watson Hyatt]

Hi Larry, 

Great question!  I researched this topic for a brief article last year -
http://www.accessiblecontent.com/online/v2n1/index.php?view=captcha  .  At
that time, there was not an "ideal" solution.  One workaround is to offer a
variety of CAPTCHAs so users can choose the one that works for them.  

Good luck.  If only such things weren't necessary.  

Cheers, 
Glenda

Dear Colleagues:

 

I am submitting the following question at the request of my coordinator.
How can you get the functionality of a captcha and still be 508 compliant?
Our institution is considering the use of captchas (heaven only know why) on
some web pages.  I look forward to your responses.
