My group is writing an Internet e-learning tool using HTML an asp. Users are guided through the modules in a linear fashion by "prev" and "next" internal navigation links. The design of the tool disables all common browser toolbars except for the title bar and scrollbar. The "next" link URLs are hard coded to direct the user to the next file. However, instead of hard coding URLs into the "prev" links, we have used JavaScript (history.back()) hoping that it would help us in the future from re-coding all the "prev" links if we had to insert an additional page in the middle somewhere. We also used JavaScript for printing the current screen (window.print ()). My organization only obligates us to meet priority 1 of 508; but we still make an earnest effort to implement as many of the accessibility laws and guidelines as we can. From my research, I believe that by using that JavaScript code, we are not even meeting priority 1 508 requirements. But the information I've read on it seems vague and varied. Does anyone know how we can implement these functionalities without using JavaScript? For example, maybe using asp?
