RNIB redesign
(again)
Well, the words on this topic on this site (and many others) certainly stirred up some ‘interesting’ conversation.
Now, I know that blind users don’t really go much on Pocket PC devices (that whole stylus touch-screen thing just doesn’t work), but it is a useful device for demonstrating how far a site owner has gone to write markup/code that is device independent. Simon Willison and Michael Davies (isolani) both put together CSS-based versions of the RNIB to show it could be done - here’s Simon’s, and here’s Michael’s. I checked Simon’s version on the Pocket PC. Compare that with the RNIB’s live version.
