Adapting the Web Development Environment for accessible and usable application construction

: Web application accessibility requires the enforcement of a set of rules on the content written or generated with the help of Web Development Environments. W3C Consortium's Web Accessibility Initiative is the most significant normative effort in this direction, and provides an evolving corpus of accessibility recommendations for HTML and, in the future, for other Web languages. In this paper, we describe a practical and extensible approach to integrate those recommendations in commercial Web Development Environments by using a rule database.
