Evaluating Web Sites for Accessibility with Firefox

In , Patrick H. Lauke explains how you can use the Web Developer Toolbar extension to perform some of the manual accessibility checks that are needed after using an automated testing tool. I regularly use the Web Developer Toolbar for evaluating accessibility, but I never realised some of the commands Patrick mentions existed. Outline Custom Elements, Linearize Page, and View Form Information are all very useful commands that I'll be using a lot now that I've been made aware of them.
