style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Hi,
we do have a summary in draft format for most of those
other templates but there are some important accessibility
improvements in the Xerte Toolkits 1.8 release and so I’m
holding off publishing the accessibility summary. Several
accessibility issues that were identified on a number of
pages (eg magnification of text in navigator subpages
breaking the learning object and inheritance of colour
changes to subpages) should be remedied in the next
release so the final guidance will come when I’ve had a
chance to see the final release after the agreed
improvements have been implemented. It should be much
shorter guidance too because there will be fewer
accessibility niggles.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">We
are using Xerte to develop some skills materials at the
Open University Library. I am currently investigating the
accessibility of the different Xerte templates. I found a
useful summary of the Text and Media templates here: <a

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><span
style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I’ve
also been looking at keyboard accessibility. Many of the
templates do seem to be accessible using just the
keyboard, but I was just wondering why the key used to
activate links etc is often the space bar instead of the
return key. I thought that the return key was standard –
is there a way to change this within Xerte so that the
return key is used instead of the space bar?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
