Tooltips are a convenient way to present some extra information about tools on our web page, i.e. some details about a link or an image. However, those tooltips, by default, are not very pretty, to say the least, and only rarely aligned with the page's design in aspects of color and/or font. If you want to have a tool tip with special colors, special fonts, etc. you're in a bit of a problem. And I haven't even talked about adding images to your tooltip, yet.

The Hilton hotel, 17:30 (which is now), Gila Gertel from the Israeli Accessibility Organization is giving a very interesting lecture about accessible technology. Do come and listen, it will open your eyes. Gila Gertel is getting ready for the lecture. It Started Now Not to many people came. Maybe 10-15. This is actually quite sad for me, as this is a topic which is very close to my heart. Gila starts with some background about accessibility - Who needs it? How many? and so on and so forth.

Working on that one, the past week or so, lead me to this post. A list of "Do" and...
Some time ago one of my collogues stepped into my office and asked for assistance. The project he's working in, is a maintenance project for some commercial site that is already on-line. The client wishes to lunch a huge campaign, and for that occasion he'd like the site to be redesigned. Of course he want it done for yesterday, and if possible even the day before. The problems are many: the code is massy, there's no common sense in the CSS file, there are weird combinations of inline...
Or - a personal history of how I became an accessibility consultant (or preacher for some). Hello everyone, since this is my first post, I'll start by a short introduction of my self: My name is Joe, I'm a system architect and a technological consultant. I used to deal a lot wit banking application, architecture and security. May be "used" is the wrong term, because I still do that. However, a year (or so) ago, I've started researching about accessibility on web site and how...
