Re: JAVA Frameworks - W3C Accessibility

My impression generally was that Java was used on the backend while 
javascipt was used on the front end (client web browser). So you could 
run something like Apache Tomcat on the backend for processing behind an 
Apache web server and use the usual javascript/html/css stuff on the 
frontend. For accessible widgets in a browser you should probably use a 
library like Dojo or jQueryUI. I've heard good things about extJS but 
it's not free. We've put some effort into the jQueryUI library to add 
more accessibility which will be out in the 1.9 release (or play with it 
now at access.aol.com/aegis) and the Dojo folks have been implementing 
good accessibility in their widgets for years.

Hope this helps.
