Headings create chunks of information that can be found easily by people with disabilities, such as a blind person using a screen reader, or a person with a cognitive disability who uses assistive technology that delineates groups of information, or someone with a communication disability or illiteracy, who uses a screen reader to assist them in their reading.
20:28:04 [greggvanderheiden]
OK

When headings are nested hierarchically, the most important information is given the highest logical level, and subsections are given subsequent logical levels.(i.e., h2 is a subsection of h1).

The objective of this technique is to use HTML and XHTML heading markup to provide semantic code for headings in the content. Heading markup will allow assistive technologies to present the heading status of text to a user. A screen reader can recognize the code and announce the text as a heading with its level, beep or provide some other auditory indicator. Screen readers are also able to navigate heading markup which can be a convenient way for screen rea

est. Assistive technologies that alter the authored visual display will also be able to provide an appropriate alternate visual display for headings that can be identified by heading markup.
21:39:13 [MichaelC]
In technologies that support Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), styling can be used to
21:39:15 [MichaelC]
change the way headings look or sound. It is even possible to style headings using CSS
21:39:16 [MichaelC]
so that they are exposed to assistive technology but are hidden from view visually.

However, showing the headings visually benefits a wider set of users, including those
21:39:19 [MichaelC]
with some cognitive disabilities.
