[SOLVED] Regarding the Accessibility - support limited to HTML and PDF formats
Hi All,

Extremely Sorry if this is a simple question but would like some one to enlighten more my question.

In WebFOCUS 8.2.1 release notes it states, The following functionality is not supported in WebFOCUS 8.2.01:

"Accessibility - support limited to HTML and PDF formats".

Can someone explain in details the pros and cons and the implications involved with it?

Appreciate your help.

Thanks in Advance.

Here is a link to the WebFOCUS 8105 Accessibility Guide

Understanding Software Accessibility in WebFOCUS
Information Builders is committed to providing high-quality products and services that are both
useful and accessible to all potential users, including individuals with disabilities. As such, we
proudly support the goals of the U.S. government in implementing the new Federal regulations
directed at broadening the availability of electronically delivered information.

Information Builders software products, to which Section 508 accessibility standards are
applicable, generally fall into the following categories:
- Tools that application developers use to build systems to deliver information.
- Tools that allow end users to perform their own ad hoc query and reporting activities.
In both cases, the information and data that is delivered as a result must be accessible and in
conformance with the standards. In the case of end-user driven systems, the tools must also
comply with the standards of accessibility.

Thank you for participating in the Focal Point Forum!
