HTML tags that make pages more accessible

Howard Lake | 4 August 2002 | News

Using HTML tags to make your charity’s Web pages more accessible is makes good business sense.

Accessible Web pages are a legal requirement now in the UK, but they also make good business sense. Your charity will want as many people as possible to access its Web pages.

Key tags to use include the following.

Great Fundraising Organizations book - available now

The tag within a link can offer an informative tip that will appear as the mouse moves over the link. <li>The <acronym> tag can expand an acronym so that it will appear in full as the mouse moves over the text. <li>A<br /> <caption> tag within a table can provide an explanation or title for a table. The </p> <summary> tag allows you to add a longer description of the contents or function of a table.</p> <li>The <tabindex> tag determines the order in which links or other Web page elements are accessed by using the Tab key on the keyboard. <li>The <link> tag can enhance the navigation elements of a Web page by including information about the relationships between a page and the page linked to e.g. back, home and next. </ul> <p></p> <div class='yarpp yarpp-related yarpp-related-shortcode yarpp-template-yarpp-template-starter'> <div style="padding-top:30px"> <h2>Related posts</h2> <div
