Am I missing something here ? I've downloaded it and installed it, and applied the AKS BlueBand.master master page to my site - the look and feel is now terrible (top nav doesn't contain images) and there's all sorts of roll over problems in the site actions menu. Looking at the master page it uses TABLES for it's layout - how is this accessibe ?!

I'm having an error setting up AKS on my machine.

In the AKS Overview Document pdf it says that you need to go to 1) site settings 2) click site collection features 3) click the activate button for the accessibility kit for sharepoint.

When I click on the activate button I get this error when the page reloads.

Failed to instantiate file "aks_bl_Navbar.JPG" from module "Images": The specified list does not exist.

Anyone know how to fix this problem?

I've already ran the AKS Feature Install program and it said that Operation Completed Successfully.

I have a trial version of Sharepoint 2007 installed so perhaps that could be the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

Why don't you MS guys get your stuff together and improve MOSS by releasing more frequent service packs with some much needed support for XHTML/CSS2.0 compliancy. It's a bit of a joke to me that you rely on CodePlex-projects and community tools in large to complete what you boast of is a "Billion Dollar Revenue"-product -- does that make you proud? It's certainly not a One-Stop-Shop MS experience to venture into MOSS-based solutions.

I'm wondering if that is worth it to throw a $50.000+ license fee per server after when going for the MOSS for Internet Sites - and THEN all the hours for consultancy work to get the stuff up and running. Billion Dollar revenue, $50.000+ per server license fees, yet you have not released one service pack since the product launched, and the MS knowledge base is counting 60+ hot fixes.

We are living in 2007 and yet MS Quality Assurance think it's okay to develop HTML without DOCTYPE information (it's actually required to be missing if you want to be successful with web part drag'n'drop)

You can do better, Microsoft!

I dislike the fact that we still equate accessibility = for the blind. yes, it's for them, but also for everyone else. We need to start seeing accessibility as a benefit for all.

Anyways, glad to see this being address in MOSS.

To make more accessible sites, just so I understand this, we'd need to use these particular templates? In otherwords, this isn't a 'patch' for MOSS overall, correct?

"Looking at the master page it uses TABLES for it's layout - how is this accessibe ?!"

Eeep! OK, now I'm not so excited anymore. Yea, tables can be accessible, but working with semantic markup to start with goes a LONG way. I know working with MOSS is a huge disadvantage out the gate in terms of valid, semantic markup, so maybe it's the best you could do.

Peter...I don't think MS necessarily cares if they are proud of MOSS. It's selling, so why make it better?

I agree, though. Digging into MOSS templates and CSS is a nightmare. It feels like it's 1997 when working with this markup and templating system. I'd never recommend the product for any public facing web site at this point. It's truly horrendous in terms of markup.

Go the message below when attempting to activate the feature ....

Failed to instantiate file "aks_bl_Navbar.JPG" from module "Images": The specified list does not exist.

Unlike Dustin above - my MOSS is the full blown version.

Attention au poids d'un page MOSS ! (et son optimisation)
