Has anyone here designed a site which has to be AAA (Priority 3) Accessible?! I can't seem to find any good rescources for this.
Any good examples of AAA sites or tips would be greatly appreciated!
cheers.

Its been a while
Some stuff that I have picked up over the years:Look to government websites. eg : http://coi.gov.uk/
High contrast is good. : colour contrast checker :

Try to keep all text websafe, but if you insist on using a fancy header font then use @font-face or sifr. Cufon will fail as you cannot highlight the text,
Get a font enlarger in there (3 steps)
Hi contrast, and dyslexic stylesheets (see bbc.co.uk).

Stay away from access keys too.

I built http://www.cohearentvision.org.u… last year and aimed at AAA wherever possible but it's bloody difficult.

Good idea in theory but found that in practice access keys can use the same keys as screen readers.
