Roger Johansson posted at the 456 Brea St. a very interesting series of articles about Evaluating Website Accessibility. The first part titled Background and Preparation, is an introduction to WAI and to the necessary tools that will help you to evaluate the accessibility of your website. Roger focused on Firefox with a set of very useful extension, I find it great to show also the power of firefox not only as a browser but also as a developers tool.
In more and more countries across the world it is becoming required for government and other public service websites to be based on standards and follow accessibility guidelines. That in turn is making it necessary for the people involved in building and maintaining these sites to be able to build accessible websites and evaluate website accessibility.
