Cost Of Web Accessibility |
Diveintoaccessibility.org provides valuable advice on making Web sites accessible. But look at what it describes: |
- First, we're defining an absolute size
(12px) for every <p>. All browsers apply this style … - Then we include the odd-looking comment "/*/*/". Due to bugs in Netscape 4, everything between this comment and the following one will be ignored. That's right, all the following styles will only be applied in non-Netscape-4 browsers.
- Immediately after the odd-looking comment, we include an empty rule "a {}". Opera 5 for Mac is buggy and ignores this rule (and only this rule). It applies everything else.
p {font-size: 12px;}
/*/*/a{}
body p {font-size: x-small;
voice-family: "\"}\"";
voice-family: inherit;
font-size: small;}
html>body p {font-size: small;}
/* */
