I may end up removing the gray scale switcher. It already doesn’t work in Firefox, and if it’s unreliable in IE, it’s probably not worth keeping. I had gone with Chris’s statement of support for it, so I didn’t verify in IE.
But I think that the feature is of dubious value; as a testing and analysis tool, greyscale is very useful, but I’m not sure it has a lot of value for the consumer.

I think so too. Is there an easy way to disable it in the actual version?
Easiest thing is to go to line 199 of wp-accessibility.php and edit. Change:
$is_firefox = (stristr($ua, 'Firefox'));
to:
$is_firefox = true;
You’re just short circuiting the check which disables the link in Firefox so that it will always show up as true.

yes that works 😉 thank you.
With version 1.2.1, the contrast feature defaults to disabled. It can still be enabled, but it won’t display by default.
