A bunch of stuff I find, write about or read.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Let’s get some reality on the web accessibility debate. We all know about WCAG 1, we have all at least had a look at the associated checklists. If you are lucky you may have glanced at WCAG 2. We all have been developing and designing our sites with semantic content, in compliance with W3C guidelines, using progressive enhancement for the interactive components, unobtrusive Javascript, and graceful degradation of the pages for legacy browsers. Maybe used some of the attributes of ARIA. Sure that’s a no brainer. We know that doing this will solve most of the accessibility issues. So much so that one would think that the cause for accessibility and universal design was over. Right? No – wrong.
