UsableNet has released a new version (1.4) of the LIFT extension for 
Dreamweaver.

<http://www.usablenet.com/lift_dw/lift_dw.html>

LIFT checks Web sites for accessibility similar to the way you would 
use a spell-checker on a document. The new update adds the ability to 
test for Priority 2 of the W3C/WCAG. Unfortunately, LIFT is kind of 
pricey, at $299, although the 1.4 update is free. I haven't used it, 
but I'm thinking about evaluating the demo at some point. Anyone on 
this list used it?
