Hello

Apologies if this should be sent to Basics list instead.

I'll soon be producing a site for a friend to help publicise a book 
she's written and need all the advice I can get on designing for 
maximum accessibility. I've read all the W3C stuff and some of the 
linked sites, about Bobby and read up on designing for the colour 
blind;  but I really need some 'been there done that' tips from the 
experts, please, any 'wrinkles' you can pass on. The site needs to be 
as accessible as possible to the broadest range of disabilities 
possible (first), but needs to be as visually appealing as possible 
too (a close second).

Any and all advice will be very welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Freda
