Step 2.c: Identify the Variety of Web Page Types

Methodology Requirement 2.c: Identify the types of web pages and web page states.

Web pages and web page states with varying styles, layouts, structures, and functionality often have varying support for accessibility. They are often generated by different templates and scripts, or authored by different people. They may appear differently, behave differently, and contain different content depending on the particular website user and context.

During this step the evaluator explores the target website to identify the different types of web pages and web page states. The outcome of this step is a list of descriptions of the types of content identified, rather than specific instances of web pages and web page states. This list will be used in the following steps to help select representative web page instances for evaluation.

Examples of Web Page Types

Some examples of different types of web pages and web page states that evaluators can look for include those:

• … with varying styles, layout, structure, navigation, interaction, and visual design;
• … with varying types of content such as forms, tables, lists, headings, multimedia, and scripting;
• … with varying functional components such as date picker, lightbox, slider, and others;
• … using varying technologies such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, WAI-ARIA, PDF, etc.;
• … from varying areas of the website (home page, web shop, departments, etc.) including any applications;
• … with varying coding styles and created using varying templates (if this is known to the evaluator);
• … authored by varying people, departments, and other entities (if this is known to the evaluator);
• … that change appearance and behavior depending on the user, device, browser, context, and settings;
• … with dynamic content, error messages, dialog-boxes, pop-up windows, and other interaction.
