    Css And Accessibility, How does everyone code for accessibility

    Hi folks,

    I am currently in the process of developing an accessible site which provides distance training courses for the disabled.

    I am attempting to make everything on the page adjust when the user increases the font size - menu divs get wider, text wraps to next line etc.

    I was just wanting to ask what methods people use to achieve this. I am attempting to do this without using tables! Completely 100% CSS. I am currently using em and % for positional values and element sizes."

    I suppose this would be the best place to start.

    Um well percentages and em values are about all you need.

    First make sure your page is semantically sensible without CSS applied. Many handicapped users do not see CSS.

    Also, WAI is not overly realistic - but it does have some good ideas.
