RE: [WSG] Accessible Image Map Editors
Image maps are the only thing I still use Adobe's Dreamweaver for. It's good at it. Note: 1. Use meaningful alt text. 2. Do not use small clickable areas. 3. Use both name and id on attributes on the map element.

RE: [WSG] Accessible Image Map Editors [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
i need to create a image map for a web page i am developing for one of my online programming classes any recommendations would be appreciated. Marvin I presume you’re using the image map to illustrate a particular principle and encourage interaction in some way? What I’m getting at is there a pedagogic principle at work here? So making the image maps accessible may allow users to navigate through to other content etc. But if the image map is underpinning some particular approach to the delivery of learning that is highly visual and interactive in nature you may need to provide an alternative learning approach rather then just making the image map accessible. An extreme example to try and illustrate my point. You design an interactive activity where you say to students meet at the top of a long flight of stairs where we will discuss the effects of exercise on heart rate. Using a lift could provide an accessible alternative for someone in wheelchair to get to the discussion. But this wouldn’t achieve part of the outcome of the lesson; that is to experience first hand the effects of exercise on heart rate. In this case you may need to re-design exercise to make it accessible, i.e. use a hill instead of stairs. Andrew Medicare Australia is reimbursing the cost of external breast prostheses.

Re: [WSG] Anchor tag without href
Hi Naveen, Sure you can for named anchors with document fragment identifiers, but AFAIK all modern browsers (and I'm not sure which ones if any didn't) support the use of using *any* HTML element to link to using a doc frag ID. For example the URL: http://www.example.com#contact could link to: a id=contact / or straight to the relevant header: h2 id=contactContact/h2 Cheers, Nathanael Boehm Freelance web user interaction designer UX · IxD · UI design · Prototyping · HTML · CSS · JS · Usability · Accessibility · Social media Imagine Innovation · UXnet Canberra · OpenAustralia · BarCampCanberra www.purecaffeine.com http://www.purecaffeine.com/about/ Canberra, Australia 0409 288 464 On Tue, Oct 27, 2009 at 2:03 PM, Naveen Bhaskar naveenbhas...@live.inwrote: hi , could anyone tell me whether an anchor tag can be used without href according to webstandads? a id=rateme img src=somepath alt=/a -- Thanks and regards Naveen Bhaskar *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *** *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***
Re: [WSG] Anchor tag without href
Don't forget that old school named anchors actually used the name attribute... a name=some_targetthe target/a Then linked to it the same way you would for any tag with an id... a href=#some_targetclick here/a I think IE6 still requires this technique.
