  2. Image Maps Use client-side MAP and provide text links for hotspots.
  3. Multimedia Provide captioning and transcripts of audio, and descriptions of video.
  4. Page Organization Use headings, lists, lang attribute, for structure. Use CSS for layout and style. Be consistent
  5. Hypertext LinksUse link text that makes sense when read out of context.
  6. Graphs & Charts Provide summary or use longdesc attribute.
  7. Scripts, Applets, & Plug-ins Provide alternative representations in case active content is inaccessible or unsupported.
  8. Frames Use title or name attribute and NOFRAMES element to allow access to individual pages
  9. Tables Don't use tables to layout columnar pages. Organize data to make sense when read row by row. Provide a summary.
