Accessibility

Being new to web development, this has been an eye-opening journey for me! I’ve hit these points related to accessibility:

  • Skip-to-content links for text browsers and those which don’t support stylesheets.
  • Navigation button links for prev/next, home, glossary, and others for Mozilla, Opera, and <LINK> bar users.
  • Accesskeys: Next on my accessibility to-do list. (Has anyone suggested standard uses of key values? I haven’t found any yet.)
  • Hover titles: Hovering over a link will let you know where the link will take you:
    • Glossary: The Live Sensibly glossary entry relevant to the linked word.
    • Live Sensibly: Links to another page within the site.
    • External sites: Domain name will be listed first.

I’m interested in real-life feedback from folks using text browsers, screen readers and other adaptive technologies. Feel free to let me know what you think!
