Multiple Skip Links
I’ve just been reading a post on the Web Standards Group from Steve Green of Test Partners.
He mentioned that his testing group had come across a site that had no fewer that six ‘skip to’ links such as ‘skip to main navigation’, ‘skip to sub navigation’, ‘skip to main content’ etc. The end result was so verbose that he felt that the site really needed a ‘skip past all these skip links’ link!
Designing For Dyslexics: Part 2
In the second article of the series on accessites.org, I’ve returned to the issue of color contrast. As you might have gathered, it’s a hot topic of mine. Primarily because it’s an area that I believe WCAG has completely overlooked but also because I think it’s an issue that can be remedied relatively easily.
However, I’m aware that, whenever you reduce a barrier for one group, there’s always the possibility that you have inadvertently created one for another group with opposing needs.
