Check accessibility of .jsp pages?

I'm looking for a tool to check .jsp pages for section 508 compliance.
The online checkers I've found can't access the .jsp pages. Any
suggestions?

Thanks
Tracy

That doesn't seem to make sense. All a checker does is request a URL and
wait for a response from the server. The response is in HTML, and HTML
is HTML no matter how it is generated.

You're right, I think now that the problem is because there's a
redirect. Users enter a zip code and are sent to one of two versions of
the site. I'm using the accessibility toolbar from
http://www.visionaustralia.org.au/ais/

When I use the WebXact/Bobby 508 checker, I was getting a 404 error,
but now I get this messge:

"This link is a server redirect.

When users visit this link, they are automatically redirected by the
web server to the link shown in the Links out section below."

When I use The Wave, it checks the page where the users enter their zip
code, not the deeper page I was trying to check.
