AB - Modern Web sites leverage several techniques that allow for the in-jection of new content into their Web pages (e.g., AJAX), as well as manipula-tion of the HTML DOM tree. This has the consequence that the Web pages that are presented to users (i.e., browser environment) are different from the original structure and content that is transmitted through HTTP communication (i.e., command line environment). This poses a series of challenges for Web accessibility evaluation, especially on automated evaluation software.In this paper, we present an evaluation framework for performing Web accessibility evaluations in different environments, with the goal of understanding how similar or dis-tinct these environments can be, in terms of their web accessibility quality.

N1 - This article introduced some modules to facilitate evaluations of web accessibility, and such architecture was proved successfully implemented. Since contents are constantly presented to users in different online environment, the architecture in this article should be able to help evaluate accessible websites in a more efficient and convenient way.
