Description

Lets users create mind maps which they can share with others through the site. Nodes can be text or images with views chosen to suit user preferences. Maps can be imported from Freemind and Mindmanager as well as exported to these format and others such as txt, rtf, pdf and image. The whole map in edit and play mode can file the screen rather like an application.

Accessibility Testing Results

These mindmaps are better edited and created with a mouse although it is possible to add links with the tab key and navigate using arrow keys once you are inside the Flash editor. When you are working with a map it feels very much like a software program with similar menus etc. Even the menus have a Windows Vista look and feel but the editor is not screen reader friendly all you get are the advertisements in text only mode and if you decide to use zoom whilst working in edit mode the adverts take over the mindmap it is best to design items larger within the map!

#	Test	Score	Summary
1	Login, Signup and Other Forms Accessible		There are no labels for forms within this product - this may create problems with some screenreaders.
2	Image ALT Attributes		Alternative text for images is missing so the graphics are no help for screen reader users.
3	Link Target Definitions		All links, including images have descriptive text although some of it is rather long.
4	Frame Titles and Layout		No frames or iframes, which can be disorientating for screen-readers, are used in the design.
5	Removal of Stylesheet		The site is unusable without the stylesheet.
6	Audio/Video Features		The site is for developing mindmaps - it is possible to add videos from You Tube and audio files and then add a text description but if it is too long it affects the mindmap.
7	Video/animations - audio descriptions		The site is for developing mindmaps - it is possible to add audio files as audio descriptions and then add a text description but if it is too long it affects the mindmap.
