Let’s host a Christmas party in ADA way
We can follow some rules and choose the day [ADA rules]
Design a nice invitation to send out
Put a heading on top that stands out [distinct heading]
All invitations may look the same
So enter the correct address on each of them [descriptive text indicating target]
Float some balloons at the road corner and at the gate
Guests can spot the house quickly and won’t come late [skipping to main content]
On the regular way to your house if there is a big pit or rock
Suggest them an alternative route to avoid the block [skip flash, map]
Cool idea to hang some good pictures on the wall
Put a brief description on them to understand well [descriptive alternative text for images]
Avoid anything that hurts the eyes and flashes
Guests may not have the UV glasses [avoid flash that hurts eyes]
Prepare your food in good taste
They will be using their JAWS to eat. [accessible to a screen reader]
Arrange the food on a table category wise
Guests should identify the items with ease [data table in order with headers]
Put a clear label on each of the food item
Will help the similar items don’t confuse them [fields are explicitly associated with their labels]
Don’t keep apples on red plate and idli on white plate
Use good contrasting colors to help guests easily locate [need good contrast]
Guests may come as a family with members in all age groups
Keep different size plates and cups [text should be resizable]
Guests may expect food items from any country
Get rADA’s help to make ADAi and vADA curry [language identification]
Serve the food in order as in the restaurant
Appetizer first and desert last is the hint [structural and semantic content]
If you are making any change in the party agenda in the last minute
Please announce it at least few minutes to the guests to adjust [session time out warning]
Guests may come in style with heavy makeup and mask to create fun
But make sure you really know them and they don’t carry a gun [content without style should be understood]
If you point someone in the party don't say the lady in blue
They may go and talk to the lady in queue [content should not be identified by color]
If you sing and dance in the party to make it grand
Give the song lyrics for the guests to understand [text version for multimedia]
If some guests want to watch video or television
Give them the remote for play and pause option [play and pause control for multimedia]
If you are giving away prizes by drawing lots
Give a unique token to the participants [unique id per page]
On the exit door don’t write go here to confuse
Put a meaningful note as ‘Exit’ as it makes sense [avoid click here]
Guests may unknowingly enter into neighbor’s property
Put a board indicating the zone limit for the party. [new window open]
Some guests may be little different
But they also deserve the same treatment [content should be accessible for all]
Let us make everything accessible
For everyone anything should be possible [all content should be understood]
Let’s follow some rules in whatever we do
