Neocities

does anyone have resources for dark/light mode toggles? I have a theme switcher in my resources but I'm looking specifically just to toggle between light and dark mode

btw for the alt text section, i dont think `alt="null"` works for purely decorative images. trying it in firefox with narrator, and it announces it literally as "null" instead of ignoring it.

yeah, for purely decorative images, alt="" (without any content between the quotation marks) is sufficient

I read something by someone with low vision saying that an empty alt tag made them think the person had just forgotten to leave an alt tag, while a null tag let them know it was something unimportant :0

alt="" *is* the null attribute? leaving it blank would mean not tacking on the alt attribute in the first place.

i think this post was written for people posting on social media platforms that provide an alt text field (in other words, sites that aren't handcoded) - that's where writing "null" would make sense.

Here are 2 accessibility things I've learned over the years: Max line length for reading should be 55 to 66 characters including spaces. 2) Large blocks of text are hard to read for many disabilities and general readers, good rule of thumb is 4-6 lines or 4-5 sentences long to give eyes reading breaks.

Hyperlinks should always describe what they are clicking since screen readers often jump to links to navigate the page. Instead the link saying something like "click here" it should describe where the link is going like the title of the article or webpage or the purpose of the link like "how to code my accessible layout here".

Using bolds and italics sparingly is indeed good to avoid eyestrain or migraines for readers, but using headings or bolds before different sections of your articles/posts can be helpful for navigation of screen readers (they can jump to html eadings just like they can links), scan reading, and breaking up the paragraphs in described chunks.

btw I'm working on reuploading all the yesterlinks stuff to my own bookmarks page. right now you can only find it on archive dot org so I figure if anyone still wanted those resources handy I'd nab em.

the source code for yesterlinks is also still available on github! https://github.com/sadgrlonline/yesterlinks so if anyone wants to they could potentially download it and fiddle around with it themselves, it looks like all the data is still there

pinkvampyr 1 year ago

@punkwasp yeah I thought about doing that but it involves JavaScript and bleh. I'm just using owls script. but if anyone else wants to do that it'd be awesome!

It's a shame that we can't share url's here. I wish I was as skilled as some of these talented creators here. Web design is so cool I only know the basics. A lot of fun though. (#_#)

hello, this is your PSA, let people decide if they want to open something in a new tab, that's why the option is there 👍

It's also an accessibility issue. Screen readers don't always announce new tabs.

solaria 1 year ago

yea i need to work onmy site for this ^^; i love opening things in new tabs and didnt realize other people dont nor did i know the accessability issue it creates. not to mention some of my links open in a new tab and some dont. will slowly fix that (among many other issues)

pixelglade 1 year ago

I thought it was common practice to code "target="_blank" for any link going off-site, then stay on the same page for your own site. Is this specific to a particular screen reader?

owlroost 1 year ago

@pixelglade I read it ages ago and went to check sources, and I stand corrected- it is still an accessibility issue, but for a different reason: it can be disorienting for screen reader and low vision users. https://it.wisc.edu/learn/make-it-accessible/develop-accessible-websites/when-to-open-links-in-a-new-tab/#why

Oh interesting, thank you for the link! Actually now you mention it, I remember reading it's good practice to tell a user if a link will open in a new tab or not, this was a good reminder.
