Minutes
Present Robert Dumas (WebCT) Philip Kragnes (UMinn) David Schwarte (Purdue) Hadi Bargi Rangin (UIUC) Jon Gunderson (UIUC) Kimerly J Wilcox (UMinn) Konstantinos N Yfantis (UIUC) Alan Bilansky (UIUC) 1. Test Server RD: The test server will be available in a few weeks RD: We will sent up user accounts and send out instructions on how to login 2. Language change issue RD: Vista has an html feature for creating questions LW: We can't use the html feature the response choices in a multiple choice test RD: For all question types? LW: I only tried multiple choice RD: Vista 3 RD: So the problem is not changing language of the question, but the responses to questions? multiple people: Yes RD: This should be an easy fix, it is odd to me that you can do if for questions, but not answers. PK: There are other uses for this feature HR: You can change the language for instructions, but not the answers HR: JAWS crashes alot when I am in creating questions 3. Un-tabable links RD: I was able to replicate the problem RD: Trouble page: reorganized page linke, no difference; tried different configurations, same problem; other views the same issue RD: Seems to be consistent, but a random problem RD: Window eyes seems to work OK RD: I am going to talk to some other developers who understand more about what is going on in the pages D: You can get to it other ways, but if you tab after a certain number of links you go back to the begining D: If you create a links list you can move to them RD: There are applets in WebCT, maybe they are interfering. When applets are disabled in a special config, tabbing to links seems to work. D: That seems to make sense, since I have had problems with other pages AB: It maybe a hidden frame problem and content changing those frames RD: I will look in that direction DS: You can turn off MSAA in JAWS using Control-V, and test HR: I have spent aot of time Action: Hadi and David to test with MSAA turned off 4. Labeling of redundant image & text links RD: I have been thinking about this, we will automatically set graphic alt="" if both text and graphic are used to define the link 5. Discussion of user experience and inviting RD (and others) to Illinois to get first hand experience. RD: This would be valuable, but I am also concerned about the new version of the product and looking at the current version problems and try to visualize how this will work in the new version. JG: Maybe Hadi could go to the WebCT conference RD: That would be good KW: The conference is July 18-22nd RD: Will check into the sponsorship of people to attend the conference 6. Discussion on color defaults, small icons and alt text on images Add discussion: list Next meeting with be April 11th 2005 at 1:00 CST (Chicago Local Time) with the theme of navigation Jon Jon Gunderson, Ph.D., ATP
