Summary
This Success Criterion requires that information, structure, and relationships conveyed through a webpage’s presentation can be programmatically determined or provided. Meaning, users should be able to understand the layout and navigate through a site, even if they use assistive technology or remove styles.
Lyrics
VERSE 1: Beyond what eyes can see, there lies a deeper truth Success Criterion 1.3.1 shows us the proof When structure’s locked in visuals alone Some users get left behind, disconnected, on their own What’s obvious to sight must translate to code So everyone can access the information road
CHORUS: Structure in the code, not just what you see Relationships that work programmatically More than visual cues, more than what you hear Making digital worlds where everyone belongs here
VERSE 2: Headings, lists, and tables need their markup clear Not just bold and color that disappear When assistive tech reads what’s on the screen It needs the bones beneath, not just what’s seen A form field needs a label, not just nearby text Tables need their headers, relationships connect Visual presentation’s just the start The code must tell the story for every single part
CHORUS: Structure in the code, not just what you see Relationships that work programmatically More than visual cues, more than what you hear Making digital worlds where everyone belongs here
BRIDGE: Information, structure, relationships entwined When they’re programmed in, no one’s left behind Not just how it looks but what it truly means That’s the power of code behind the screens Adapt the presentation, preserve the core That’s what accessibility is for!
