Abstract

Web accessibility is becoming a prominent issue in several countries, not only because of legal and compliance issues, but because of sound commercial opportunities arising in an ageing society and the Mobile Web. This paper will present recent developments under the umbrella of the BenToWeb project to create new advanced compliance modules to check automatically accessibility issues were before human intervention was necessary. These modules will be integrated in an existing Web Compliance Framework named imergo®.
