The first part of this was Ian Lloyd merely talking about the tools afforded at accessify.com. I am downloading something so I do not want to move from any point where the wireless is actually working.

Page heading and document outline are useful in the WebDev Toolbar

Use semantic markup even if it is not, to your knowledge supported by an accessibility tool.

Javascript is not necessarily evil. To check, again, the WebDev Toolbar allows you to turn off js.

alt text:  normal stuff.
Basically, download the WebDev Toolbar for Firefox and use it.

graybit.com – turns your site into greyscale – pretty cool.

Firefox plugin – Color Contrast Analyzer
Tool: FAE

Unobtrusive accessibility: doing the right thing without your boss noticing: hidden skip links and form labels and table headings
