The recent flurry of activity (additons to the toolbar) has been due to the preparation of a document called The Web Accessibility Toolbar and WCAG 1.0 which is now finished and published.
This document indicates which toolbar function (if any) is helpful in assessing conformance to the WCAG 1.0 Checkpoints.
Each time i looked a particular checkpoint I thought"it would be good if the toolbar could help check for that"
and proceeded to try to cobble together some code to do it, or scrounge around for some code to modify or best of all hassle Sofia or JUn to do some development.
The newest function is:
Structure > JavaScript / New Window Links
It Displays an icon next to links that contain JavaScript in the href attribute. The links are also given a dashed border and background colour.
it Displays an icon next to links that contain an onclick event handler and common words used in new window scripts in the href and/or the onclick attribute. The links are also given a dashed border and background colour.
It Displays an icon next to links that have their target attribute specified (_self & _top are excluded) . The links are also given a background colour.
Aknowledgement to Autark who created the script this is based on.
Thanks to Sofia Jun and Andrew Arch for their help and hard work..... - posted by steve faulkner @ 9:24 pm, 1 more function plus new additional documentation: permanent link
