Moving Toward Accessible Design

The accessible repair approach commonly taken to improve the accessibility of web resources often results in web resources becoming more "technically accessible" but still remaining functionally unusable by many people with disabilities. The Best Practices avoid this problem by focusing on the functional requirements that improve access to all users, including people with disabilities. They are inspired by the needs of people with disabilities but are designed to give all users more options and control when accessing web resources and support the interoperability concepts of the web. In accessible design approach, less assumptions are made about what technologies will be used to access a web resource and emphasis is placed on separating content from styling and creating semantically meaningful markup. This provides all users with more options to use of a broader range of technologies and provide users with the ability to restyle information for their own needs, including people with disabilities. The use of web standards also benefits developers since they can
