Abstract

Web accessibility is growing in importance as each day goes by. Alongside with this growth, also the need of access to web resources, by those with some sort of disability, is increasing. The web is very important for spreading information and for the interaction between the various society elements. Given this, it’s mandatory that the web presents itself as a totally accessible resource, so that it can help the disable citizens in their integration within the society. This obligation should be even bigger for the enterprises because, in their majority, the web is used as a marketing and business platform. This document is meant to be a position paper regarding the comparison of results between web accessibility evaluations of the Portuguese websites using version 1 and version 2 of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
