Web Design for the Disabled

Conclusions

Different disabled users use very individual combinations of techniques and technologies to improve their situation and to extend their range of options while using the web. It is not possible to consider every possible workstation installation including the software used and the individual health state of the individual person. Following some simple guidelines helps most visitors without harming others. Following the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines published by the W3C and testing the site extensively with different hard- and software while developing the design is making a reasonable effort in making the web more usable and accessible for a large number of visitors and potential customers.
