As you may have guessed, Universal Design for Web Applications addresses the architectural principle of universal design as applied to the Web. Practitioners of universal design are concerned with making their web content work as efficiently as possible across the range of capabilities exhibited by both people and their chosen browsing technologies.
The ultimate goal of universal design for the Web is to increase usability for people with disabilities and in scenarios involving mobile and embedded devices. As we discuss in , the proportion of web usage worldwide by means other than the desktop browser is increasing at an incredible rate, and users who have learned universal design practices are in the best position to design and maintain sites that meet those users needs without returning to the bad old days of having to build one interface for every kind of browser.
Readers should be familiar with web page technology, particularly (X)HTML and CSS. There are separate chapters addressing JavaScript; Ajax and ARIA; and Rich Internet Applications in Flash, Flex, and Silverlight. If you dont use all of these technologies, feel free to skip those chapters.
This book should help:
- Web developers and designers who are looking to build universal design practices into their work
- Managers and trainers who are looking to help their organizations do the same
- Accessibility advocates looking for advice relevant to modern web design practices
- Anyone with web development or design skills who needs a refresher
How to Read This Book
This book is primarily built on the framework of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0) and the Mobile Web Best Practices 1.0 (MWBP 1.0) produced by the World Wide Web Consortium. The information we have chosen to cover is primarily based on the Level A Success Criteria of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0. This is not to say that the other levels are not important, but we assume most people will want to start somewhere and this is the best place to startthe minimum level of conformance. We strongly encourage you to look at the success criteria in the other levels and do as much as you can to address those.
However, this is not a WCAG 2.0 tutorial. We dont discuss how to claim conformance to WCAG 2.0. What we hope to achieve is a reference that helps the reader approach web design as we dowe hope you learn to ask some of the same questions that we ask, and make some of the same decisions. To that end, we have organized the book to focus on the process of design, and chapters are based on types of informationforms, document structure, and scripting.
Weve also included a series of questions and show you how each maps to WCAG 2.0 and MWBP 1.0 and where to find more information about that particular topic within the book.
Where possible, we also point you to related references, such as the Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (ATAG 2.0), articles about universal design from the DO-IT program at the University of Washington, Internationalization Techniques, User Agent Accessibility Guidelines, and the Section 508 standards.
