Automated (and Guided!) Accessibility Audits with axe Pro

3.10.2019
It's important to know there are tools for automated accessibility testing of websites. They are a vital part in helping make sure your website is usable for everyone, which is both a noble goal and damn good for business. Automated tests won't catch every potential accessibility issue, but they...

Mina Markham Should Make Beyoncé’s Site Accessible

3.10.2019
I remember when this went around in January, and I'm a little shocked it didn't happen. Mina is the perfect person for the job (like, duh) and the result would be good for everyone. Let's make this happen. The least we can do is sign Amélie Lamont's petition. Direct Link to Article —...

Enhancing The Clickable Area Size

1.10.2019
Here’s a great post by Ahmad Shadeed on making sure that clickable areas in our interfaces are, well, clickable. He writes about making sure that links, buttons and other elements meet accessibility standards for both touch and mouse, too. I particularly like the section where Ahmad writes about...

Multi-Million Dollar HTML

30.9.2019
Two stories: Jason Grigsby finds Chipotle's online ordering form makes use of an input-masking technique that chops up a credit card expiration year making it invalid and thus denying the order. If pattern="\d\d" maxlength="2" was used instead (native browser feature), the browser is smart enough...

Table with Expando Rows

20.9.2019
"Expando Rows" is a concept where multiple related rows in a <table> are collapsed until you open them. You'd call that "progressive disclosure" in interaction design parlance. After all these years on CSS-Tricks, I have a little better eye for what the accessibility concerns of...

Need to scroll to the top of the page?

2.9.2019
Perhaps the easiest way to offer that to the user is a link that targets an ID on the <html> element. So like... <html id="top"> <body> <!-- the entire document --> <a href="#top">Jump to top of page</a> ...

Accessibility and web performance are not features, they’re the baseline

16.8.2019
This week I’ve been brooding about web performance and accessibility. It all began when Ethan Marcotte made a lot of great notes about the accessibility issues that are common with AMP: In the recordings above, I’m trying to navigate through the AMP Story.

A More Accessible Portals Demo

31.7.2019
The point of the <portal> element (behind a flag in Chrome Canary) is that you can preload another whole page (like <iframe>), but then have APIs to animate it to the current page. So "Single Page App"-like functionality (SPA), but natively. I think that's pretty cool. I'm a fan...

Improving Video Accessibility with WebVTT

17.7.2019
"The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect." - Tim Berners-Lee Accessibility is an important element of web development, and with the ever-growing prevalence of video content, the necessity for captioned content is growing...

CSS :focus-within

25.6.2019
Using :hover to display additional information or elements is a very useful technique but a big drawback to using the hover pseudo-class is that they are usually not accessibility-friendly. Not everyone uses a mouse and some users have visual impairments, so they rely on screen readers or...

How to Section Your HTML

18.6.2019
The sectioning elements in HTML5 are <nav>, <aside>, <article>, and <section>. <body> is also kind of a sectioning element since all content lying inside of it is part of the default document section. Here is a brief explanation of each sectioning element...

Lindsey Kopacz has a wonderful blog about accessibility. I've seen a number of her articles making the rounds lately and I was like, dang I better make sure I'm subscribed.

Grid, content re-ordering and accessibility

13.6.2019
Take this: <ol> <li>Get hungry</li> <li>Order pizza</li> <li>Eat pizza</li> </ol> That HTML ends up in the DOM that way (and thus how it is is exposed to assistive technology), and by default, those list items are also visually...

How to Detect Text in Images

11.6.2019
Images are a great way to communicate without text but oftentimes images are used/abused to spread text within social media and advertisements. Text in images also presents an accessibility issue. The truth is that it’s important, for any number of reasons, to be able to detect text in image...
