--- Comment #5 from Srikanth Dhondi <srikanth at catalyst.net.nz> ---
I have addeded an accessibility page in the development section of koha-wiki,
which essentially summarises WAI guidelines. 

Coming to guidelines that are being followed specifically in relation to
attachement 12871, point-wise:

--> 1) Added labels to Search history and x links in the top frame

According G131 of WAI guidelines: The objective of this technique is to ensure
that the label for any interactive component within Web content makes the
component's purpose clear.

--> 2) Changed search results message from <strong> to <h3>

As per our accessibility expert at Catalyst IT, it is advised to use headings
instead of strong/bold tags, where possible, as screen readers can pick up
headings. 

--> 3) Added the 'alt="cover image"' message to those entries that have cover
images

WAI recommends providing altenative text description of images.
