Abstract

From the last few decades World Wide Web (W.W.W) has become an important part of our life. Internet plays a vital role in all important sectors including education, health, and business. An equal access of web is the basic right of all groups of society .The web should be accessible to user with disability as it is accessible to normal user.  It is the responsibility of web developers   to make accessible web site in order to provide equal opportunity of web to all users. Although World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) publishes guidelines to guide web developers about web accessibility rules but few web designers follow guidelines. The main reason is lack of awareness of the web accessibility among developers. Some organizations take web accessibility into account. In the market different kinds of web accessibility    improvement tools are available which can check the accessibility of websites. The organizations are still unable to tackle web accessibility problems. The organizations should pay attention on web accessibility from initial stage of web development. The framework should be used in organizations which can instruct web developers to make accessible web sites. The paper gives review of existing web accessibility Improvement tools and their comparative merits and demerits. The paper also describes different web accessibility frameworks which are described in research papers to cover the limitations of existing web accessibility tools.
