Easy way to test for 508 compliance for *.html file set?
Hello,
I am outputting WebHelp with RoboHelp 9 which claims to output 508 compliant content. I want to check this claim.
I see W3C validating sites that take a URL and run a W3C compliance test on that entire website.
Are there similar tools available for testing 508 compliance properly?
Thanks.

Hi,
Here's an online tool that should help you verify 508 compliance, although have only used this while verifying against WCAG 1/2.
http://achecker.ca/checker/index.php
Note that you can only do one page at a time, sometimes the site seems to go down (so not wise to rely on if you're pressed for time), and that you'll also have to check your pages manually if you want full coverage. It will at least give you an idea on the quality of the code that is being produced.
