Web Accessibility Toolbar for Internet Explorer





The Web Accessibility Toolbar for Internet Explorer is very similar to Mozilla's Web Developer Toolbar.



It is provided by the Accessible Information Solutions (AIS) team at the National Information and Library Service (NILS) , Australia. The Web Accessibility Toolbar has been developed to aid manual examination of web pages for a variety of aspects of accessibility. It consists of a range of functions that:
  • identify components of a web page

  • facilitate the use of 3rd party online applications

  • simulate user experiences

  • provide links to references and additional resources
A list of functions that include toggling stylesheets, code validation, display headings, image lists, disabling images, color functions, page resize, page zoom, accessibility simulations for color blindness, cataracts, & other sight impairments, and a whole lot more can be found here.



This site also has an impressive listing of tools and references for accessibility that is worth looking at too.
