I have a Computer Engineering B.S. and Computer Science M.S. When I think back on all my courses, I don't remember a single course that covered accessibility. I feel this really should be taught more as part of developer degree programs as foundational knowledge.

Agreed totally! We need to change our educational system to integrate accessibility into software development learning. For example, everyone learning basic HTML knows about Alt text for images, but not everyone knows about the use of Alt text in the context of accessibility (which just lead to no thought process being put into the content of that Alt text, hence even if they provided the Alt text for an image, they'll just be useless for the very people who needs them). I guess a lot of it has to do with the teachers teaching the program also not aware of that fact?

W ROB DODSON, even years later this content is still worth gold.

Timeless piece ! Still applies in 2024

Fantastic video. Don't know why this isn't taught more. I'm sharing this video. Excellent instructor.

Great lecture. It all makes sense now. Thanks!

Thank you for the lecture! Finally able to grasp some concept on Accessibility!

Great stuff, thanks Rob.

The Udacity course he mentions is actually very good and its free. I strongly recommend it, you can finish it in about a day.

I rarely comment on youtube. But this one deserved it. It's really awesome!

This is GOLD. Thank you!

Very interesting, helpful and inspiring, a big thank you for this video!

Keep up producing useful tutorials. All the best.

Very interesting! Thank you!

Great lecture! Thank you

Excellent content!

this is what i've been looking for!

Finally found this video with useful information!

In my opinion it is an important development skill to build high level usable web apps, thank you for sharing.

helpful summary of the things that you will daily use in a11y

Very interesting!

From anyone in the know, have things improved at all since 2018 when this was recorded? I'm surprised at how much screen readers depend on correct markup and how little thought most developers will put into doing that properly.

@@robdodson1956 hey your allycast series is awesome but it's very tough to understand for beginners like me I want to practice accessibility from the beginning itself do you have any idea in creating a crash course regarding this topic

awesome!

great lecture Rob, I developed an open source chrome extension that enables tab navigation using speech recognition and a Large Language Model. I hope it enhance the browsing experience. Full demo in my videos (Odin Tabs)

this video doesn't have a description.

Hey, I'm totaly new into this and just wonder what the name is of the tool you are using for the screenreader simulation? much appreciated!

Not a simulation, I believe. Voice over on Mac Command F5 usually starts the software. The PC free software is NVDA. I use that and the expensive Jaws for testing. This guy is a Mac person.

I was wondering if you could provide your input on the following scenario: I am testing an error message for form field and the same form is being used in multiple locations/places. ( 7 different places) As per AODA it could impacts the navigation flows on each pages right, so in that case Do we need to check the accessibility in all locations?

While the same form may be used in multiple places, the context and navigation flows of each location may be different. Therefore, it's important to ensure that the error message is accessible and usable in all of these contexts. so I will test all 7 different places.

Only thing I couldn't grasp was how you are getting the gray box with what the screen reader is saying when you are using the developer tool. How are you doing that?

How does the reader handle lists. Lists aren't buttons, menus, tabs, etc.

The aria graph literally looks like i did it, and i just cannot not remember. i plan all my stuff like that

Are there any companies that can check web accessibility of a website?

Yes, There are companies that conduct web accessibility audits and remediation for websites. Check out Deque Systems, Tenon, The Paciello Group or UsableNet.

Hi Rob, I'm trying to create an accessible 508 HTML form, is there a possibility coding wise to disable mouse click on the HTML form ? Thanks in advance.

@simplyaccessibility

Жыл бұрын

Yes, it is possible to disable mouse clicks on an HTML form using CSS. You can use the pointer-events property and set its value to "none" for the form element. Here's an example: form { pointer-events: none; } This will disable all mouse events (clicks, hover, etc.) on the form.

Time for an update

Awsome

We also need more accessibility in the workplace. There are many call-center jobs availblenow. But we need call center software to be accessible to blind persons. most Call-center software cannot be navigated with keyboard short-cuts and they time you out. We need more acomodations for the blind in call center jobs. The software needs to be accessible. There is no use in educating students if the jobs are not accessible, there needs to be more acountability.
