While I'm on a blogging rampage, thought I'd post about a nice little accessibility checker.
Similar to the XHTML and CSS validators, the ATRC's Web accessibility checker is a very handy resource to check whether or not your webpages pass their criteria for an accessible website.
I searched for something like this after seeing the BBC's Click magazine on BBC News24, when they ran a story about accessibility. It uses a blind BBC worker as a case study about the importance of accessibility, and explains the forthcoming legal issues with non-accessible websites.
The British Standards Institution has published a guideline for designers and businesses called PAS 78 - a guide which stipulate all kinds of recommendations when designing (and commissioning) websites. Worth a read for the future!
