Yahoo! Developer Network:Web Accessibility

Web Accessibility
Dirk Ginader from Yahoo! talks about accessibility and layers! Along with having a key role in the overall design, layers must also be examined separately for building web applications with good accessibility.

Other than the standard HTML, CSS, and JavaScript layers, he also talks about the "CSS for JavaScript" layer and the ARIA (Web Accessibility Initiative - Accessible Rich Internet Applications) layer.
