A Tiny jQuery Plugin: Accessible News Slider

Yesterday, a jQuery slider plugin was published at WRD. And here is another nice one.

Accessible News Slider is a lighyweight jQuery plugin (2kb packed) for presenting contents in a slider.

The CSS, XHTML and JavaScript are developed specifically to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0.

• Users with color vision deficiency, or color blindness
  Color is not the primary indicator & back-next navigation is either visible or hidden. There is also an indicator that communicates the total number of news items.
• Users with limited or poor vision, but who do not use a screen reader
  Slider is compatible with resized fonts.
• Users that are legally blind, and who browse Web pages with a screen reader
  The appropriate skip links and title tags have been included for navigation and messaging.
• And more details are mentioned on the plugin’s homepage.

The plugin is compatible with all major browsers and free for both personal & commercial use.
