Leading the Web to its Full Potential...

Guidelines for Accessible Web Authoring become a Recommendation

As a collaborative medium, the Web demands that people be able to create content -- not just read it -- regardless of disability. The newest W3C Recommendation, "Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines 1.0," explains to authoring tool developers how to design accessible tools that produce accessible Web content. "The Web, and the world, thrive on information which is accessible to all," says W3C Director Tim Berners-Lee. "Tools built using these guidelines will make this much easier."
