Charles McCathieNevile wrote: The browser sniffing applied by some sites and used to vary the content can also impact the experience of users with disabilities. Ensuring that while the specific detail may vary, the actual content served will be consistent will minimise such impact. I think that the following text addresses your concerns. Let me know if it doesn't. "How does it help especially users with disabilities?: While some users with disabilities use the most advanced mobile devices to run their assistive technology properly, others need or prefer simpler models that are easier to use. For example, the elderly or those with cognitive disabilities. Users with limited dexterity may prefer older devices with larger keypads. those with limited vision may use devices with monochrome displays. Some assistive technology may not be compatible with new devices. This BP ensures that content is accessible using the widest possible range of devices." best regards, Alan En Wed, 17 Oct 2007 18:10:28 +0200, David Torres <dtorres@technosite.es> escribió: > > Hi again, > > [THEMATIC_CONSISTENCY]: I mean this BP helps users with disabilities > because > if a URI can give a coherent content as much as possible range of > devices, > users with disabilities will have more chances to access to this URI > with a > thematic coherent experience (note that while some users with > disabilities > try to use the most advanced mobile devices in order to run their > assistive > tools properly other user with disabilities try to have the simplest and > easiest mobile devices, for example, old people or users with cognitive > handicaps). > > Regards, > > > David Torres Leal > Consultor > Technosite - Grupo Fundosa > Tlf: 93 238 71 32 > Fax: 93 415 04 62 > www.technosite.es > > > > > > > -- Alan Chuter Accessibility Consultant Technosite (Fundación ONCE) achuter@technosite.es www.technosite.es Tel. +34 91 121 03 35 Skype: achuter1 If you are unable to reply to this message because of spam filter, try my alternative address achuter.technosite@yahoo.com.
