Mozilla Browser with Accessibility Validation

The Mozilla Browser with Accessibility Validation is an embedded Mozilla web browser used to display and validate web content. It works much like a standard web browser except that it exposes the live DOM assembled by the browser. This enables ACTF to dynamically validate the actual DOM rather than the HTML source.

There are two ways to get to this view:

  1. Right click on an html file in a project and select Open with>Mozilla Browser with Accessibility Validation
  2. Select the Open web browser with accessibility validation action () from the main Eclipse toolbar. This will open the Open web browser with accessibility validation dialog
