Yep, web content has to be equally accessible to individuals with disabilities.  Including blind individuals.  It provides the mechanism for these “individuals” to collect civil damages, which is where the legal establishment stepped in.  The intent was to improve access; the result has been the skimming of much cash. 
 
Every site has to be completely viewable by adaptive software such as JAWS.  It can be a real pain when writing code by hand.

 I hadn't heard if this before.  Could you post a link to a reference?  I googled the topic, but the most recent source that I found (2002) said that the "Americans with Disabilities Act" doesn't apply to web pages:   http://news.com.com/2100-1023-962761.html

Fear the squirrel.
