How to improve the web accessibility?
One of the way to improve web accessibility is to create “Alternative Text” for images in the webpage. You can follow the procedure to create the “Alternative Text” using Microsoft Expression Web. The procedure for other web editing softwares are similar. • Place the cursor where you would like the image to appear. • From the menu, click Insert => Picture => From File… • The Insert Image Window should now appear: • Browse and select the image you would like to insert into your webpage. • When you are finished, click the Open button. • You will be prompted to enter Alternate text for the image. The alt attribute tells the reader what he or she is missing on a page if the browser can’t load images. The browser will then display the alternate text instead of the image. It is a good practice to include the alt attribute for each image on a page, to improve the display and usefulness of your document for people who have text-only browsers or people with visual impairment.
