[SurveyGizmo] Changes that may affect live surveys

We are making some changes to SurveyGizmo surveys so that we will be compliant with the highest-level requirements (AAA) of the WCAG 2.0. Hi {NAME}, We are making some exciting changes to surveys to support increased accessibility. We're providing you advance notice as this could affect your surveys. SurveyGizmo is serious about making sure that the surveys you create are usable for every single person you send them to. This includes individuals with disabilities using assistive technologies like screen readers. SurveyGizmo has always strived to be the most accessible survey solution on the market and soon we are about to make another large step forward. The [Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0](W1X1QP_7k0MWpW89PNV92JwRzj0/*W11nrV82l78KSW7hJ2Tl8-vd_L0/5/f18dQhb0S9r79jgNWxW6bMXB35Yg1DtW7NXykj7JR_v8W55MrL832jCrVW2pDqVn4DynbzW3C8h304DdTfsW47xh9d2KNlWPW6vclzT3CQglkW3SLYcb49JfBwW3C8bwH6lJyFWW6nznhH6MrhZ_W6dyrNt4DsQl1W3sf_NW2HRydFW5h-pw55B4_wWW3R0dPW3v7CBPW3Wlz2M5RXcQYW1B5VzG5F_2JdW3XsqW05pfw1SW5mg0gg1Bh9MrW2tClsH8hz0YsW806yj370ml3sW3pBKBq6slSfCW6ff8rk923GqYW8slyqP4Qmh4CW6dm4yR9cPKc2W7Mgg9J5rSnmMW2vs4kP952ZxgW6wvlYr9l6DPLW1SVT0s79CRddV1KVN178S-TKW4_lvP72df-2cW6KKz3v6VP1WdW4qmPB54brxpyW1k81S16JXfC0VNrkz-5rKJbxW2lr5Vy49kJbNW1cV7vW72zrXTW712wFT1mL30WW3gk2KW5B5Q7bW5nHJSL3P2m5KVyvDFg49X0tlN4QDgwJWWdCJW921mzJ91k00mW5_5bm76XWkdlW8FmDY-2_zG1GN8xHMdRLG01PMrTzpY1jKz3f1wRN8x03) are an international standard that establishes best practices and requirements that ensure websites are usable by people using assistive technologies. We are making some changes to SurveyGizmo surveys so that we will be compliant with the highest-level requirements (AAA) of the WCAG 2.0. In support of this effort, we have made changes to the underlying HTML of our surveys. These HTML changes may affect your survey if you are using JavaScript in your surveys or custom CSS code in your themes. Will I be affected? All customers will benefit from these changes! For one, you can be confident that users of assistive technologies (JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, etc) are able to take your surveys. Further, your surveys will continue to comply with updated government requirements like 508 and ADA in the US and others around the world. The scope of customers who may be negatively affected is quite small.

In addition, if you are using JavaScript in your surveys you should check to make sure your survey still behaves how you want it to. How to check for CSS or JavaScript in your surveys Not sure if your surveys use custom CSS code or JavaScript? It's easy to check! To check for CSS go to the Style tab of your survey. Scroll to the bottom of the survey preview on the Style tab and click the link to access the HTML/CSS Editor. Go to the Custom CSS tab; if there's nothing there you're home free! Be sure to check all surveys that use different themes. To check for JavaScript go to the Build tab and look for JavaScript Actions. If there are none, you are all set! How can I test my survey against the HTML updates? We have set up a public testing environment that has the new updates for you to test your surveys. Just follow the steps below to take a look at your surveys: - Grab the share link to your survey (if your survey has multiple share links that use different themes all links/themes should be tested). Let's take this example share link: https:­­//www.surveygizmo­­.com/s3/1234567/My-Survey. - Replace the first part with: wwwuat.­­surveygizmo­­.com - Our example link would look like so: https:­­//wwwuat.surveygizmo­­.com/s3/1234567/My-Survey - Paste the newly constructed share link into the address bar of your web browser. - You can then move through your survey and verify it is still working correctly. - If you want to record a test response, you can add “?__sg_build_test=true” to the end of the URL or just open the survey in the Preview mode within the app. - You can access the testing version of the application by logging in here: [uat.surveygizmo.com](W1X1QP_7k0MWpW89PNV92JwRzj0/*N5fkNlxgPQ25W4Xg3YX5W1Bnn0/5/f18dQhb0Sq5D8YHrG2W32p-mt2wqbgQW6bLcNc62z69GVRqVDl64DbVMV4hbtL7JTlp7W8hy7Ln7NTj4-W6f6FZm8mQCwmW9bTNXY954KlMW4P0Yt62c4QRcVChz6h84Xxv3W4mssky8tLshvW7JQjYC79T9-0W2bFs_r20Wxs7VvXDx-70fl6pW7PJ6bd2gM41PW2vq-M51nnQd3VRZh_22JDZKmN2JDgVLQg5-4W2Yby7522WLyBW6HBHnD6qG734W7VKhFd1D4XC4W1ykRP02g16C2W264SC05Vp2smW1zBDb070tQVyW1X4-gM1mt2RMW7FYfdW2gNs8MW1Fn1-62kykY5W7sQP2T6vYlkhW71g6Cj1RbD0RW5XW8MF7zWpdGW1GbLn_1MqXxWW86qSSJ83rPczW7n5kfb1HtQRZW7c9XJB1nqs0mW7CrHHj82G-SFW3x58qx1NFfl4W8P4zkG2JbNchVRzWwG8q5y8bW60LmY63fQyhTN4QXRQ0Ltm4yW4r5l5j43lYf9W95fYjL5W4yV3VNRWGS8_Cq8DW8tZr245Dsq_1W1YpshT3QzSg8VQN_Tj3yR6X2f4dVPV604) WARNING!
