[Accessibility_sig] Section 508 and WCAG Checklists

[Louis Capone]

Hi,

 

I found a Section 508 Checklist for HTML on WebAim, which addresses what are a pass and fail.  Does anyone have a WCAG checklist for pass and fail?

 

Since I am a neophyte to accessibility I am also looking for references to accessibility tips for development. These would go hand in hand with the standards, but would be a large laundry list of items like:

 

No use of tables, use divs wherever possible

No use of dropdowns, use radio buttons

Alt tags for all images

Use space in alt tags "description"

Use "null" alt tag for spacer gifs

Use labels for all form fields

Etc.

 

Lou
