Re: html editors?



You can also edit HTML under Emacs using Emacspeak
(http://emacspeak.sourceforge.net/), which I would personally
recommend, as it provides excellent support for editing HTML
documents, inserting elements and attributes via control keys or
menus, aural syntax highlighting, etc.

Mozilla includes an HTML editor but it is reputed to be less well
developed than the user agent component. Moreover, most of the
access-related work has focused on the latter, with the result that
the editor may not be accessible under Gnopernicus. It is worth noting
that many HTML editors are notorious for producing low-quality,
invalid code, and often also have inadequate support for features of
HTML that are of importance to accessibility, such as the ALT
attribute of the IMG element.

The above should not be construed in any way as a comment on any
specific HTML editor, but only as a general remark.

For developers interested in making their editors and related software
produce more accessible Web content I recommend the W3C's Authoring Tool
Accessibility Guidelines (http://www.w3.org/TR/ATAG10/), which also
deals with the accessibility of the authoring tools themselves.
