The W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Working Group has posted the first public working draft of HTML Techniques for WCAG 2.0. "This document provides information to Web content developers who wish to satisfy the success criteria of 'Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0' [WCAG20] (currently a Working Draft). It includes techniques, code examples, and references to help authors satisfy each success criterion. The techniques in this document are specific to Hypertext Markup Language content [HTML4], [XHTML1] although some techniques contain Cascading Style Sheet solutions [CSS1]. Deprecated examples illustrate techniques that content developers should not use. The techniques listed in this document are suggestions on how to conform to WCAG 2.0. However, they may not be the only way to satisfy each success criterion."
