User Agent Guidelines completed
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has finalised guidelines for building browsers and media players that work better for people with disabilities. Known as the ‘User Agent Accessibility Guidelines‘, they are designed to give application designers the information they need to make accommodation in their software such that disabled people can use them too, for example by providing ways for screen readers or Braille translators to access the required document information.
