With the World Wide Web playing an increasingly important role in providing recreational, educational, governmental, and commercial resources, the concern for making the Web truly accessible to all users has become more critical. The multimedia nature of the Web and the speedy revolutions of browser and other Web-related technologies have greatly empowered million of users, but many users cannot utilize the full range of Web resources due to accessibility problems. Many of the problems with access persist, not because they are unsolvable, but because Web designers have not paid due attention to the issue of accessibility and the technologies already available to overcome the barriers. In order to make the Web truly accessible, Web designers need to know accessibility problems and implement solutions for accessible design.
