Web Site Accessibility Blog

Eric Meyer is a person that I feel fortunate to have met. I have the privilege of speaking with him on, of all things, a panel about web standards and CSS. (I feel that he treats me with undying patience when I talk about CSS – Thanks, Eric.) Eric is one of those people that speak his mind with considerate honesty. You know what you are getting when you talk with him. The story of how we met and are speaking on the same panel is one that will someday become Internet lore.

We’ve debated a few times concerning accessibility and designers who force text size. The last report I had from Eric is that he was testing some CSS to see if users are always able to change text sizes.

I keep up with Eric’s blog and found an interesting entry yesterday. He relates an experience he had in a restaurant with someone who might be considered to have a disability. Considering my last post, and I felt this was worth posting and saying “thanks� to Eric for being one of the most straitforward people I know.
