Depending on how it’s used, JavaScript can either make or break the accessibility of a site. This talk aims to cover all the ways to ensure accessibility of a website that’s dependent on JavaScript. Specific points to be addressed include

  • fallback methods for browsers
  • avoiding obtrusive JavaScript
  • proper display of callback text such as errors and confirmation messages
  • handling user interactions
  • ensuring easy navigation
