Accessibility
Pop Menu Magic is designed with accessibility in mind - giving you a solid starting point from which to integrate and customize an engaging menu into an accessible web site that meets your goals. By default, your PMM menu passes automated Section 508 and WAI checks - ready for you to fine-tune to achieve your real world, project-specific accessibility needs. We've written an article describing one way of building an accessible site that features a PMM menu system that you should read if you are new to the field of accessible web pages.
Note: As you develop your web site's pages, passing automated accessibility checkers never means your site is actually accessible. You must go beyond the automatic pass/fail criteria to ensure that you cover each manual checkpoint as it relates to your specific pages. Accessibility is a complex issue.
26 menu styles
Choose from a large selection of attractive, color coordinated menu styles in either vertical or horizontal formats.
CSS list-based markup
Pop Menu Magic menus are comprised of efficient CSS-styled unordered lists for accessibility in a wide array of user agents, including the leading assistive reader JAWS. Pop Menu Magic menus are always visible to text browsers and to search engine crawlers.
Visual menu management = total control
Your popup menu system is fully managed from within the Pop Menu Magic User Interface. You can build your menu one link at a time or you can also generate your menu automatically - based on your site's folder structure.
