I ordered the sauce

Having just deployed the latest release of design agency Outburst’s website, I was again thinking about the order of source in html, and how I would put the content first in that site. I could use absolute positioning, but I don’t think that would work in cases where the font size had been increased by the user, or where the user’s display has a resolution greater than the default 96 dpi.

In a spare moment, I did a quick search and found an old but pretty informative presentation and article on exactly that, where they’d done a little bit of user testing. It’s so hard to find that kind of hard information I thought I’d pop a link up here.

WCAG Cheatsheet

While making accessible websites is accepted practice by any web devloper worth his or her salt, sometimes we need help identifying exactly how to. The W3C's WCAG are here to help us, and our clients.

Trouble is, they're quite in-depth and long-winded. Thankfully now, though I found something on my travels that will help me tick as many of the accessibility boxes as possible. Remembering of course that making websites accessible is much more than just crossing off items from a list.

Here is is: the WCAG cheatsheet
