First thing, pickup a copy of “Inside Dynamic HTML” by Scott Isaacs. Published by Microsoft Press, ISBN #1-57231-686-1. The book’s jacket claims that the “complete, fully searchable contents of the book in HTML” is available on the included CD-ROM. Also, review our Dynamic HTML site at http://www.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/default.htm <http://www.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/default.htm> . I’ll be posting regular information about DHTML and it’s accessibility implications, good and bad, to this list as we move forth. One thing to note – Dynamic HTML and the Document Object Model work, was at least partially driven by Scott Isaacs, a Program Manager here at Microsoft who is really a friend of accessibility. He pushed hard for a lot of accessibility enhancements with regard to forms in the HTML working group and was harping on me a year ago about how an HTML object model can be great for accessibility.
