ACCESSIBILITY CODE INSPECTION Make sure that you have a copy of the U.S. Federal Guidelines, known as Section 508, handy when you reach this step. Note: you aren’t required to use U.S. Federal guidelines, it’s just that an explanation for each guideline and how to check for it, is necessary, so you could use other accessibility guidelines if they are very similar. Note that a code inspection doesn’t mean that you must go through a web page and read every single line of code. Often, the best way to do a code inspection is to identify the relevant HTML tag, and then use the “find” feature to find where in the code there is an instance of that tag. I repeat: don’t read through the entire code. Use the find feature to find the HTML tags that are relevant to the specific accessibility violation that you are investigating. Here is a list of the current regulations for web sites from Section 508, and a commonsense description of how to check for violations. Often, when you hear things that just “don’t sound right,” you can identify the actual cause of the problem during the code inspection, using your experience from previous steps. Regulation from Section 508, 1194.22 Paragraph AAlt text Paragraph BMultimedia Paragraph CColor Common-sense description for how to determine if there is a violation - Follow up and check on any misleading or missing alt text from steps 1 and 2 - Do searches on all tags and make sure that you have alt text (unless the is for something without any content, like spacing) Does the page have any audio or video? If so, make sure that there is captioning for video with a soundtrack, textual descriptions for video without a soundtrack, and a transcripts for audio Are there any parts of the web page where a change in text color signifies something (for instance, form fields that are required), aside from the fact that text is a hyperlink? Would the page cause problems if you were viewing it in black and white? Is there enough color contrast between text and background (use a tool like http://colorfilter.wickline.org/) if you can’t easily determine Paragraph DStyle Sheets People with disabilities often apply their own cascading style sheet (CSS) to a web page. See what the web page looks like when the CSS is disabled. It’s easy to change the web browser settings to disable style sheets. Make sure that the content still makes sense. It doesn’t have to be the same or look perfect, it just must be readable. Paragraph E and F-Server Side Image Maps Paragraph G and H-Tables Paragraph IFrames Paragraph Jblinking and flashing Paragraph KText-only page Does the page have clickable image maps (where you click on a different portion of a graphic to either access a different link or to access content?) If there are no clickable image maps, move on to the next guideline. If there are clickable image maps, see if there is a way to access the content (or the links) using only the keyboard. If so, it’s accessible. If not, it’s a problem. Look at the web page. Do you see any data tables? Do a keyword search for the HTML tag. If tables are used, but only for presenting layout, move on to the next paragraph. If there are tables used for presenting data, make sure that there is a lot of markup, using techniques such as the for a labeling each column in the top row of the table, a summary using the attribute, to give the table a title, and the attribute to describe the location of each cell in the table. Accessible tables are a complex topic. When in doubt, listen to the table using a screen reader and see if it makes any sense. For more information on accessible tables, go to: http://jimthatcher.com/webcourse9.htm Do a keyword search and see if there are any or tags in the code. If there are no frames, move onto the next paragraph. If there are frames, determine if the tags have meaningful titles. TITLE=”left, top, or bottom” would be meaningless and inaccessible. Title=”maincontent, navigation, or search” would be useful. And make sure that there are tags if you use frames. Look at the web page. Does the web page have any flashing or blinking text or images? Is there scrolling text or anything which might make someone dizzy or have an epileptic seizure? If there is anything blinking or flashing which potentially could be a problem, you can use a tool like http://tools.webaccessibile.org/test/check.aspx to check it. This paragraph allows that, if you cannot make the web page accessible, that you can have a link to a text-only page, and that will then qualify as accessible. If there’s a link to a text-only page, as long as the content is up-todate, that’s considered to be accessible, but it’s pretty rare nowadays that organizations do that, as it’s not encouraged. So this paragraph is rarely “violated.” Paragraph LScripting Languages Paragraph MApplets and plug-ins Paragraph NForms Paragraph OSkip This is the most challenging paragraph to evaluate. Scripting comes in many different forms, including JavaScript, Ajax, and Active X. To do a thorough complete review, you need to be familiar with any scripting languages used. For instance, you could do a keyword search for , and see if there are equivalent event handlers for keyboard use. That means, for example, for every mouse-related Javascript event handler (such as onMouseOver), you need to have an equivalent keyboard event handler (such as onFocus). Note that this would probably not identify every single usage of scripting, and furthermore, you should only be interested in scripting that relates to actual content. A purely decorative mouseover, where an object changes color when you roll the mouse over it, but there is no actual content provided by the event handler, is not an accessibility problem. You should be concerned by event handlers that provide content (for instance, rolling over a section of seats in a map of the symphony hall, and the price of those seats appears), not decorative ones. Another way to approach this is to look through the web page visually, looking for any portions of the web page where either 1) content is automatically being updated and changing, or 2) where the content being displayed changes based on user actions (such as moving the mouse over an object). Once you identify those areas, then you should attempt to access the same content using your screen reader, and only using your keyboard , and see if you can access the same content. If the page provides any content using either an applet or a plug-in (such as Adobe Acrobat, MS-Word or MSExcel), is the plug-in accessible, and does the page include a link to download the plug-in? Often, having a link, on the page, to an accessible version of the plug-in is what is forgotten Do a keyword search in the code on and then determine if all of the form labels make sense. Are they called “form1, form2, form3” or something meaningless, or are they called names such as “first name, last name, mobile phone number, etc.” When you listened to the top of the web page, is there a link called something like “skip to main content” or “skip Navigation Paragraph PTimed response navigation” so that users can follow that link and start at the main content of the page, rather than having to listen to all of the navigation first? Technically, this is easy, but many site designers forget about this. Are there any tasks on the page with a time limit? Any user actions with a limited amount of time? This often occurs with a login or entry of sensitive or security-related data. If there are any tasks with a time limit, make sure that the user has the option to request more time
