• Money Talks! Formatting Currency in Web Content - TPGi

  "Only the most common non-dollar currency symbols are likely to be recognized and announced more or less correctly by most screen readers, including the Pound (£), the Yen (¥) and the Euro (€). While not included in this test, a quick check for the Thai Baht (฿) and the Vietnamese Dong (₫) found no support."

• options for optgroup labeling of options - HTML Accessibility

  "An ugly truth is that there are still interoperability issues with some of the native HTML controls and Screen readers. Even though these controls have been around since long before AI came to the rescue of our accessibility asses."

Moreover, I don't think a one-dimensional spectrum can sufficiently capture the tradeoffs involved in web development."

• </> htmx ~ Is htmx Just Another JavaScript Framework?

  "In short, while htmx can be used as a framework, it's a framework that deviates far less from the web's semantics than the JavaScript frameworks do, and will benefit from improvements in those semantics with no additional work from the user, thanks to the web's excellent backwards compatibility guarantees."

• Not all automated testing tools support Shadow DOM in web components - Manuel Matuzovic

  "Many automated testing tools are a collection of JavaScript functions you run on a page. Most of those rely on querying the DOM. If a tool doesn't consider shadow trees, it only catches accessibility errors in the Light DOM, which may give you a wrong sense of safety and potentially affect your users."

• Government not meeting minimum accessibility standards on federal websites, GSA report finds | FedScoop

  "More than three quarters of the agencies that responded were at or below average in terms of compliance, the report explained, and less than 30 percent of top-viewed online content analyzed conformed with standards."
