Appendix A. Cross-Reference for Universal Design for Web Applications
These 20 questions are based on the Level A Success Criteria in the November 3, 2008 Proposed Recommendation of WCAG 2.0. They do not directly map to the WCAG 2.0 Success Criteria and may generalize advice given in WCAG 2.0 . As such, the ultimate reference for WCAG 2.0 is the current version of WCAG 2.0, available at http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/.
The WAI’s Education and Outreach Working Group has collaborated with the Mobile Web Best Practices Working Group on a series of resources called “Web Content Accessibility and Mobile Web: Making a Web Site Accessible Both for People with Disabilities and for Mobile Devices,” which include mappings between WCAG 2.0 and MWBP 1.0.
Table A-1 is our interpretation of the mapping. Please refer to the WAI Education and Outreach Working Group (EOWG) resources if there is a discrepancy (http://www.w3.org/WAI/mobile/).
