So how about accessibility?…Well, out of the box, a SharePoint publishing site is like most Web sites out there.…It's not terrible.…But it's not great either.…And by accessibility, I'm meaning a site that gets as close as it can to the…Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, WCAG, supplied by the World Wide Web Consortium.…These are set of rules, suggestions, guidelines, however you want to phrase…them, for making your Web sites more accessible.…Step one in this deal is stop looking for SharePoint to be magical by itself.…
You're meant to be bringing your own skills to the table here.…You will run into the situation…that some behind-the-scene part of SharePoint is going to inject some terrible…markup that's not at all accessible.…And you can rage against this as much as you want.…It will end up happening.…But it doesn't mean the task is pointless.…There's a lot you can do being pragmatic with SharePoint 2007.…You should be using the WCAG as an ideal to strive towards.…Even if you don't make it there, you can get pretty close.…
