Michele Kirchner,
Evaluation, Repair, and Transformation
of Web Pages for Web Content Accessibility.
Review of Some Available Tools.
Abstract
This paper deals with the concept of accessibility of web sites to people
with disabilities. Major problems arise when there is the need of special
browsers, which understand the standard HTML, but not the extensions
introduced by the most used browsers. The WAI (Web Accessibility
Initiative) has pursued some guidelines in order to build accessible sites
and the new W3C standards are converging towards those guidelines. A
review of some of the tools available for testing the Web pages and
correcting them with respect to the guidelines for the accessibility is
also presented.
