According to the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) accessibility standards, most Web applications are neither accessible nor usable for people with disabilities. Developers often solve this problem by building a separate, accessible application, which is seldom usable and tends to offer less functionality than the original one. To maintain a single application, developers may create an accessible view by applying on-the-fly transformations to each requested page; yet this solution rarely fits all audiences. In this paper we propose to let users improve Web accessibility in their client browsers through interface refactorings, allowing for many customized, accessible views of one single application.
