Ruffled Feathers
Diplomacy ain't my strong point, it would seem. Looks like I ruffled a few feathers with my post on the accessibility issue. Actually I'm honored to have Scott Mitchell himself comment on the post. I believe its a golden rule never to delete blog entries or feedback even if you are highly embarassed, so I'll leave them on to remind myself to be careful next time. However, I have edited the content slightly so I dont get flamed!
On the lines of my reply to Scott, I think that ASP.NET is an awesome leap in technology and v2.0 promises to be even better and the fact that everything is so extensible is like the icing on the cake. Now if only we can persuade more people to take advantage of these features and build even better sites instead of hurriedly chucking a few controls together on a page.
How about an extension to FxCop that runs through custom controls/generated code? Or is it just easier to point an online accessibility compliance checker at the site? The FxCop route may be better in terms of prevention rather than cure.
Now maybe I should talk about MCMS 2002 next? Or would that get me thrown out of the site? :-)
