Updated: August 25th, 2009
The internet is open to everybody so we need to open our Web content to make it friendly to everybody. The articles in this section cover different accessibility problems that you may encounter:
- Browser / Platform
- I compare the different browsers available for desktops and mobiles and how you can design a site to work with them all simultaneously. Embedded content is briefly consider a long with advanced CSS techniques.
- Colours / Images
- There are several vision based disabilities that can affect how users access your website, affecting a significant portion of any user base. I show how you can prepare your site for these users and how visual content can be adapted for non-visual browsers.
Accessibility is a buzz word that is spread far and wide in the web designer community. The only important thing is that you learn about the users who visit your site and identify the problems they have; only then can you adapt accordingly.
