Just a thought.
One of our group members raised a question to me today that I feel we
should at least walk through the thought process for. The topic is are
there requirements we should be considering for accessibility of web on
mobile devices. I'm not sure this is specifically being addressed in
the telecomm, desktop/portable, or self-contained groups, as this
focuses on any requirements specifically related to creating web coding
that remains accessible when accessed using a user-agent and AT on a
mobile device.
To me this seems like resizing, (use percentage sizing not absolute),
device independent scripting, and maybe a few other requirements apply.
Maybe we can just say that web pages must be accessible on mobile
devices, but that doesn't really provide anything testable.
