Synopsis: The power of the Web lies in the fact that anyone and everyone can access it. However, this should also extend to users with disabilities--accessibility is about making websites accessible to those with aural, visual, or physical disabilities, or rather, constructing websites that don't exclude these people from accessing the content or services being provided. This isn't difficult to do, and doesn't require anything more than your normal toolset, be it HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Flash, or whatever else. All you need to do is use these tools in the right way, and bear in mind the guidelines that exist to help you keep your web sites accessible, and the laws that enforce web accessibility around the world. This book gives you all you need to know about web accessibility, whether you are a web designer or developer who wants their sites to be accessible, or a business manager who wants to learn what impact the web accessibility laws have on their businesses' web sites.
