Bobby is a comprehensive web accessibility software tool designed to 
help expose and repair barriers to accessibility and encourage 
compliance with existing accessibility guidelines. Bobby tests for 
compliance with government standards, including the U.S. 
Government's Section 508. It offers prioritized suggestions based on 
the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines provided by the World 
Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Access Initiative.  Bobby allows 
developers to test web pages and generate summary reports 
highlighting critical accessibility issues before posting content to live 
servers. 

Bobby's accessibility analysis is an implementation of the May 5, 
1999 version of the Web Accessibility Initiative's Web Content 
Accessibility Guidelines and the U.S. Section 508 guidelines for 
accessibility adopted by the Architectural and Transportation 
Barriers Compliance Board (Access Board) of the U.S. Federal 
government. Bobby analyzes Web pages in accordance with these 
guidelines and, where possible, automatically checks guidelines.

For more information about these guidelines visit the Web Access 
Initiative at the W3C, at  http://www.w3.org/WAI/ or more about
