Product Description:
This book provides a short, practical guide to ensure that your Joomla! web site is accessible and usable by the widest audience.
Understanding how to create accessible websites is an essential skill these days. You may even be obliged by law to create websites that are usable by the widest audience, including people with a range of disabilities.
This book looks at what accessibility is and the various reasons, such as legislative or legal, as to why you really need to understand accessibility and then create websites that can be used by everyone.
This book therefore examines the diverse range of user requirements that need to be considered for humans to successfully use web technologies.
If you have no experience of being around, or working with, people with disabilities then it can be very difficult to successfully design user interfaces that cover their needs. This book will show you how you can both understand some of the various needs of people with disabilities and the technology they use to interact with computers and the Web.
- Understand what accessibility really means and why it's important
- Ensure that content editors and writers publish accessible articles
- Create accessible Joomla! Templates
- Understand Assistive Technology (AT) and the needs of people with disabilities
This book is a guide to any Joomla! user who wants to make their sites more accessible and the author does assume that you have a basic working knowledge of Joomla!. You don't need to know anything about accessibility -- the author tells you all that you need to know to make your Joomla! sites accessible to the widest audience.
While some design skills and technical knowledge of HTML, CSS and PHP will be very useful you will still benefit from reading this book if you wish to understand more about assistive technology and the needs of people with disabilities. The book is distilled from years of hands on experience that the author has as a web developer and also working with people with disabilities.
