It seems everybody who dabbles in digital accessibility is blogging about WCAG 2.2 now that it finally went live. This is my obligatory post, but I am not promoting it because there is already so much noise and much of the content is regurgitated. If you are not aware, WCAG…| Adrian Roselli

There is a non-zero chance that WCAG Success Criterion 4.1.1 Parsing will go away in WCAG 2.2. This isn’t a problem for users, regardless of the problems it may pose for the WCAG process, ACT rules, automated testing tools, or ossified testing processes. The joke here is using an antique…| Adrian Roselli
Usually. I originally titled this InacCSS-onlyible. I even made this typographically, er, distinct image. Then I realized it was silly and will instead use the neologism in a talk so I can hear the groans IRL. Interactive widgets powered with only CSS are relatively common as people are playing with…| Adrian Roselli
Now that it is a market differentiator to talk about accessibility in projects, that’s all many do — talk about it.

FTC Order…| Adrian Roselli
I made a demo for WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 2.4.11 Focus Not Obscured (Minimum). I built it strictly to capture screenshots, so while it is not a good demo as a standalone (which is why it is not embedded here I added it) it is handy to demonstrate something. Conformance…| Adrian Roselli
I made a demo for WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 2.5.8 Target Size (Minimum) AA and have embedded it further down the page. Unfortunately it is going to be annoying for you, dear reader, as it steals focus. Conformance Success Criterion 2.5.8 Target Size (Minimum) AA with only the first two…| Adrian Roselli
Automated accessibility testing tools cannot test 100% of WCAG. This position is not controversial. Other than overlay vendors, no automated tool maker makes that claim. This is partly because WCAG is targeted at humans, not code, and so nuance and context apply. Free automated accessibility testing tools may have even…| Adrian Roselli
