W3C published a draft of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0), as well as HTML Techniques for WCAG 2.0. The current WCAG is WCAG 1.0, which published as W3C Recommendation May 1999.

It’s first time I noticed there’s HTML Techniques document for Accessibility guidelines. I wonder is most of the blog engine on the market has covered the accessibility consideration in their default blog template? That would be good to many disabled web users.

Some web accessibility validators (or should be testing tools, verifier, advisor):

• Accessibility Monitor : an online validator following WCAG
• A-Prompt Toolkit : a Windows application to test your web page accessibility
• NEWMAN Color-Blind : validate if you color design being considerable to color-blind
• WebXACT, they also have a desktop tool Bobby
• Lynx : An easy way to test your website’s accessibility, is to get text-only web browser lynx to surf to your site
