Web Application Projects........What happened to the Accessibility check?

Now I may be wrong and please correct me if I am, but it seems that you can not check your entire web application project to see if it is accessible.

If you create a website using the default VS2005 implementation you have the option of checking a single page for accessibility or the entire site.

With a Web Application Project it appears you can only check a page at a time (Not great if you want to track accessibility for a fairly large site).

Is it something that was missed or is there simply a different way of doing it?

Answers on a postcode :D

More stuff is broken in these projects. For example right-clicking inside markup or on a page in the designer won't give you the 'View code' option anymore.

Hi John,

The command for accessibility is there -- so you should be able to use it across pages.  If you want to send me email I can loop you in with someone on the team to help.

To answer Frans' comment above -- the "view code" command is supported in WAP on the menu and via key-strokes.  You can also right-click on the node in the solution explorer to get it.  It isn't in the source editor context menu right now because that list was hard-coded when VS 2005 shipped.  With SP1 of VS 2005 we will also add it there as well.

Hope this helps,

Scott
