Ringkasan :It’s easy for a non-disabled person to browse the Web. Point your mouse, see the screen,
ignore (or read) the ads and the navigation on a page, and concentrate on the central area
of a web page that contains the content. Skim through the headings, search for an interesting
picture, and then settle your eye down to read the actual information.
Fine and dandy, if you aren’t old and don’t have arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, or multiple
sclerosis, and therefore have the motor control necessary to point your mouse. It’s a piece of
cake to listen to that news report if you aren’t deaf, and easy as pie to find the main content
if your vision is good enough to read—or if you are sighted at all. No problem ignoring all
those flashing ads, if you don’t have an attention deficit disorder, and no danger of a seizure,
if you don’t have photosensitive epilepsy.
But what about those people with disabilities? How can they ever hope to use the Web,
which was designed for people who can see and use a mouse? The answer is in this book.
First, the Web was explicitly designed to be usable without a mouse, and without eyes if
necessary. A good deal of what drives the Web and makes it so popular is animation, color,
and images. But behind the scenes, underneath the hood of any website (choose your
metaphor), lurks the computer code that powers it all. Because the Web was designed to be
available to people with disabilities, carefully crafting that code (the “markup”) can make
your site much more accessible to people with disabilities.
Without damaging the attractiveness of your site to your non-disabled visitors, you can allow
users with disabilities to reach, perceive, operate, and understand your content. Therefore,
more people will have the opportunity to experience your brand, buy your products, or participate
in whatever activity you hope to stimulate with your web presence.
