I always use JAWS on any project that I work on, if it does not work correctly it gets scrapped and reworked. Many times the UX designers I work with do not, are ignorant of the fact and combative about it. So in the end the onus falls on me to make the damn thing work which can require some pretty involved JavaScript tricks and browser hacks. I have thought about releasing a library of all of these accessibility helpers. As I have never really found one that focuses on accessibility.
- wahnfrieden 16y agoTake a look a lt Dojo Toolkit's UI widgets (Dijit) - they at least advertise full accessibility compliance, and the set of widgets is rather comprehensive. Might save you some time in the future even if you just use them as a starting point for your own UI.
- kls 16y agoYes I use Dojo extensively, It is my toolkit of choice for a plethora of reasons, but accessibility is one of them.
