Accessibility Tips

See this: Accessibility Tips

There are some useful techniques to increase the accessibility for your website.
Here is the highlight:
Validation: Make sure your website is valid for web standard. So that the accessibility tool can read it.

Platform Independence: Your website should be accessible regardless of the user's platform and settings.

Structural HTML: Concentrate on the structure of the document rather than its presentation. Let the Style sheets work for presentation.

Images: ALT is a must! Avoid using Images of Text and Image Maps!!

BODY Colors: . If you set the body color or body background, you should also specify all color attributes. Make sure that the page is readable.

The FONT Element: Avoid using "FONT" tag and "basefont" tag. Style sheets is much flexible.

Tables: Avoid using it for layout. WIDTH attribute is unnecessary. Never try to place a TABLE within a P element.

JavaScript: Don't rely on it. User can disable it. Screen reader ignore it.
