Accessible And Attractive Websites

Golf.uk.net

Golf.uk.net is a piece of work by Tom Gilder, whose name will be known to some from his personal site. I hate golf, but I really like this site -- the way it looks and the way it's constructed.

This would work quite happily on a PDA without CSS support (although admittedly the sliced graphics look a little odd out of context). Skip nav in the house!

Bytes of Torbay's Past

This page looks as far removed from the corporate world as it gets (a historical site about Torbay), and if I'm completely honest, the main navigation menus are a little flat for me.

However, I was impressed with the separation of the styling from the content (look at the CSS disabled screenshot) and despite my personal disliking for the menu items' simplicity, I like the fact that they use the right markup for the job, that being list items (<ul><li>) with the appropriate nesting. It feels like a small Website that's been crafted with love.

Literary Moose

Similar in some ways to One Day Films (OK, the grayscale effect), Wojtek's site, Literary Moose, does not make any bold claims about its support for accessibility, but it's been built in all the same.

Accesskeys, skip navigation links, list items for navigation -- they're all here.
