Learn to Create Accessible Websites with Joomla!

Written by Joshue O Connor, Senior Accessibility Consultant with CFIT, this book is designed to help readers gain a deeper understanding of Joomla! and accessibility. This book looks at what accessibility is and the various reasons, such as legislative or legal, as to why readers really need to understand accessibility and then create websites that can be used by everyone. This book therefore examines the diverse range of user requirements that need to be considered for humans to successfully use web technologies. This book is a guide to any Joomla! User who wants to make their sites more accessible and the author does assume that readers have a basic working knowledge of Joomla! Readers don’t need to know anything about accessibility. While some design skills and technical knowledge of HTML, CSS and PHP will be very useful, readers will still benefit from reading this book if they wish to understand more about assistive technology and the needs of people with disabilities.
