RNIB - Web Accessibility centre - a good place to start to find out about accessibility "Web accessibility resources from techniques through to advice on how to implement website accessibility". http://www.rnib.org.uk/xpedio/groups/public/documents/publicwebsite/public_w ebaccesscentre.hcsp Hicks Design - skip navigation links "Skip Navigation links, traditionally hidden with the CSS property display:none, are invisible to screen readers..." http://www.hicksdesign.co.uk/articles/archives/000180.php Joe Clark - brief comment on visible skip navigation "You�re not going to like this, but to make a lengthy list of links accessible, your �Skip navigation� link must be visible. It doesn�t have to be intrusive, but it has to be apparent and self-explanatory in all browsers." http://joeclark.org/book/sashay/serialization/Chapter08.html#p-2155 Andy Budd - Design for Accessibility (128k pdf) - a great introduction to accessibility for designers and developers http://www.skillswap.org/downloads/accessibility.pdf A tutorial on character code issues (incredibly in-depth article) "This document tries to clarify the concepts of character repertoire, character code , and character encoding especially in the Internet context." http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/chars.html Thanks Russ ***************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ *****************************************************
