Q. How can I develop Gecko-based software that is usable by persons with disabiblities? A. For the most part, you need to make sure there is a way to use every feature in your UI via the keyboard. Thera are special preferences that support persons with disabilites (such as color and font prefs). See http://www.mozilla.org/projects/embedding/prefs.html. There is more information about Gecko's accessibility support at http://www.mozilla.org/projects/ui/accessibility.
