33. “Unless a way can
be found to notify
screen readers of
updated content,
Ajax techniques
cannot be
considered
accessible.”

34. “This Ajax
application is
usable by screen-
reader users some
of the time. They
aren’t totally shut
out, but it isn’t
totally easy for
them, either.”

35. “The power of the
Web is in its
universality.
Access by
everyone
regardless of
disability is an
essential aspect.”
