How does WAVE work?

MAGIC!!!

  1. A user loads WAVE interface and submits web page address.
  2. WAVE server downloads content and a custom version of Firefox renders page with CSS applied.
  3. The virtual page/DOM is checked against WAVE rules.
  4. The original page is loaded.
  5. Icon and report data loaded.
  6. WAVE icons and descriptions are inserted into the original page and interface.
