Accessibility

Just a host of links on accessibility and javascript/ajax, with a bit of commentary...

  • http://www.webaim.org/techniques/ajax/
  • http://ejohn.org/blog/ajax-accessibility/

... Actually, the search works pretty good. I was trying screen readers, but that's not really the topic I'm researching...

I'm still not sure why anyone disables javascript. On the defective mobile browser devices where the browser is a mere nod to what is available on a computer, I get that, but I'm still not sure why anyone wants to use a 2.5inch, 480x200 screen to do browsing (with the natural exception for browsing)

Because of mobile devices, I break the web down into two worlds:

  • No holds barred full-fledged browsers...
  • Tiny, little screens, for which you have a completely different spec.

There's nothing new in what I'm saying...
