A few days ago Christopher posted a question about difficulty reading
colors and his inability to control that feature on his browser.  The
color scheme designed for the page was not of a high enough contrast for
him to read.  Judy Brewer, director of the International Program Office of
the Web Accessibility Initiative for the World Wide Web consortium provided
the solution that resolved the issue for Christopher.  Below is a copy of
the e-mail chain.

Christopher:

Glad that solved it. Thanks for letting me know.

By the way, things should be easier than this. Once more of browsers
implement WAI's "User Agent Accessibility Guidelines" -- which are in
Candidate Recommendation status right now -- settings relating to
accessibility will be more easily findable on browser menus, and hopefully
it would be more obvious what they accomplish.

I've cc'd this reply back to the same folks, so they know the question is
addressed. 

You might want to let the VICUG list know, as well, if they got the earlier
message.

>> >> http://www.w3.org/ -- 3 February 2000 -- The World Wide Web Consortium
>> >> (W3C) today announced the release of the "Authoring Tool Accessibility
>> >> Guidelines 1.0" (ATAG 1.0) specification, providing guidance to
>> >> developers on how to design accessible authoring tools that produce

>> >> stable, contributes to the universality of the Web, and has been
>> >> reviewed by the W3C Membership. W3C encourages developers to promote
>> >> Web
>> >> accessibility by implementing this Recommendation.
>> >>
>> >> ATAG 1.0 Provides Guidance for Tool Developers
>> >>
>> >> The Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 explain how developers
>> >> of authoring tools, such as HTML editors and site management tools,
>> >> can
>> >> encourage and assist in the production of accessible Web content
>> >> through
>> >> prompts, alerts, checking, repair functions, and help files in their
>> >> tools. In addition to their value to accessibility, many of the
>> >> principles addressed in the specification, such as the importance of
>> >> producing and preserving valid markup, promote interoperability of the
>> >> Web in general.
>> >>
>> >> The Guidelines address not only the accessibility of content produced
>> >> by
>> >> tools, but the accessibility of the tool itself. The Web is not a
>> >> read-only medium, and accessible authoring tools will enable all
>> >> people
>> >> to publish to the Web, regardless of disability.
>> >>
>> >> ATAG 1.0 Will Contribute to Increase in Accessible Web Content
>> >>
>> >> There has been an increasing interest in creating accessible Web sites
>> >> particularly since the May 1999 release of W3C's Web Content
>> >> Accessibility Guidelines 1.0, and a correspondingly greater demand for
>> >> tools that produce accessible content. Implementation of ATAG 1.0 will
>> >> contribute to the proliferation of accessible Web content.
>> >>
>> >> "Most content on the web is created using authoring tools. If
>> >> authoring
>> >> tools seamlessly guide authors in creating accessible content, the
>> >> wealth of information on the Web will become more accessible," said
>> >> Jutta Treviranus, Chair of the Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines
>> >> Working Group and Director of the Adaptive Technology Resource Centre
>> >> at
>> >> the University of Toronto. "Just as important, the Web as a means of
>> >> expression should not be reserved for people without disabilities.
>> >> These
>> >> guidelines promote authoring tools that create content that is
>> >> accessible, and authoring tools that are usable by people with
>> >> disabilities, thereby cultivating a World Wide Web that we can all
>> >> participate in."
>> >>
>> >> ATAG 1.0 Addresses a Wide Array of Authoring Tools
>> >>
>> >> The Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 address a broad range
>> >> of
>> >> tools, including WYSIWYG editors, "save-as-HTML" conversion tools,
>> >> tools
>> >> that dynamically generate content from databases, formatting tools,
>> >> image editors, and site management tools.
>> >>
>> >> ATAG 1.0 consists of twenty-eight requirements, called "checkpoints,"
>> >> for developing accessible authoring tools that produce accessible
>> >> content. The checkpoints are organized according to seven overriding
>> >> design principles, called "guidelines."
>> >>
>> >> As with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0, ATAG 1.0
>> >> checkpoints have three priority levels, which correspond to their
>> >> importance for accessibility. There is a checklist providing a quick
>> >> overview of the checkpoints by priority. W3C has made icons available
>> >> for products claiming any one of the three conformance levels.
>> >>
>> >> Broad Support, Multiple Implementations Under Development
>> >>
>> >> The ATAG 1.0 Recommendation was written by members of the Authoring
>> >> Tool
>> >> Accessibility Guidelines Working Group (AUWG), composed of key
>> >> industry
>> >> players as well as disability and research organizations. A list of
>> >> AUWG
>> >> members is available.
>> >>
>> >> The Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines Working Group is preparing
>> >> a
>> >> variety of implementation support materials to assist developers,
>> >> including the "Techniques for Authoring Tool Accessibility," published
>> >> today as a W3C Note. At the time of this release, every requirement of
>> >> the Guidelines has been implemented by one or more existing tools,
>> >> though no tool yet satisfies all checkpoints. In addition, authoring
>> >> tool developers are planning ATAG 1.0 support in upcoming products,
>> >> indicated among the wide range of testimonials.

>> >> About the Web Accessibility Initiative
