CURRENT CONTENT: "Powerpoint Accessibility Wizard >From Division of Rehabilitation - Education Services, University of Illinois. "Accessibility Wizard simplifies the task of converting PowerPoint presentations to text pure HTML ... and automates much of the conversion of Power Point Presentations to an HTML format that includes required accessibility information." (20 April 2001)."

The extension can be used by people with disabilities to navigate the structure of a HTML web resource. It can be used by authors to check their structural markup and styling to make sure it provides functional accessibility to people with disabilities. The extension helps authors test their use of structural markup to help people with disabilities view the main topics of a web resource (H1-H6), find collections of related links, and navigate links. The extension also makes it easy to check and apply alternative styling of a web resource by making it easy turn off author style sheets, apply high contrast and user stylesheets, and increase and decrease text size. The extension also provide new keyboard commands to navigate document structure for people who cannot or have difficulty using the mouse.
