FCKEdit and accessibility

Rate this Message:
We've had 2 comments about accessibility problems with FCK edit.
1/ when page text is made large, the logos in FCK remains the same size. 2/ when page text is made large, the user entered text inside FCK remains the same size. Is anybody looking at this? It's also interesting that tool tip 'help' doesn't increase in size (in FF2 and MSIE 6) Adam -- Adam Marshall - OUCS 2008 e-learning conferences: Shock of the Old - Web 2.0, April 3rd - http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ltg/events/shock2008 Beyond Digital Natives, April 4th - http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ltg/events/beyond2008 http://www.myspace.com/wheresthebeachmusic ---------------------- This automatic notification message was sent by Sakai Collab (https://collab.sakaiproject.org/portal) from the DG: User Experience site.

Adam -
Not sure if anyone within the Sakai community is working on accessibility in FCK Editor. I just checked the FCK editor website (http://www.fckeditor.net/), and I see that under their 'Roadmap' >>'Version 3.0 and the Future,' they list "Usability and Accessibility." But, you got me curious to see if TinyMCE would pass the test. TinyMCE is the editor that we adopted for Mneme - Test Center (because of its high scores on accessibility), and the below works nicely on both Firefox and IE.

You are both right; what we need at this point is for someone in the
community to take this on as a project. TinyMCE is the right choice for an accessible text editor, but should be presented as an option, since FCKeditor has been the Sakai default.

Yes, I did mention awhile back that the ATRC has applied for a grant to work on FCKEditor accessibility. At the moment, we're still waiting on it. We heard to some positive rumblings about it a few months ago, but haven't yet heard back about final approval. My colleague, Greg Gay, and his team are certainly enthusiastic about working on it, and a more accessible FCKEditor would benefit us all. Hopefully we won't have to wait too much longer. In the meantime, Mike's right to suggest that TinyMCE is the best accessible alternative for a rich text editor.
