Publisher's Synopsis

Create Web sites and software that meet the sensory, dexterity, and cognitive needs of your users. Whether you're a developer or a project manager, this guide teaches you how to incorporate programmatic access and keyboard access into your interfaces-starting at the product planning and design stage.

  • Follow a real-world example that integrates accessibility at each stage of the development cycle
  • See how the components of the UI Automation architecture fit together to enable accessibility
  • Deliver programmatic access through the API-and expose navigation, interactive controls, keyboard focus, and other important information about the UI
  • Design a logical hierarchy for the UI that meets the programmatic and keyboard navigation needs of your users
  • Know when to apply common controls and when it's worth the expense to build custom controls
  • Give users a variety of accessibility options-from font size and color contrast to screen readers and voice recognition
  • Test your product's accessibility features and document the implementation
