CSS: Accessibility Tool

By keeping HTML structural, it's easy for lot's of different user agents to get to your content

• ADA Section 508 (It's the Law - and getting more so...)
  • Target.com, AOL, SouthWest Airlines
• Search Engines
• Small-screen devices
• People and inventions of the future

• Structural
  • <h1>Site Title</h1>
  • <h2>Page Name</h2>
  • NOT: <p><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="+3" color="#FF0000">Something Important!</font></p>
